A "yes" vote prohibits the registration of new deer and elk farms and the importation of white-tailed deer into the state, curbing a major source of CWD transmission.

A "no" vote does not pass SF 20, agencies and programs like the DNR, MPCA are not funded, and initiatives like banning PFAS in food packaging and increasing protections for gar are not implemented.

A "yes" vote passes HF 6 off the Senate floor, and steps are made toward securing Minnesota’s transition to clean energy.

A "yes" vote allows for the appropriation of constitutionally dedicated conservation funding.
