Episode Synopsis

Minnesota narrowly avoids a government shutdown after lawmakers work overtime to pass a state budget.

A new Minneapolis Police Department memo reiterates officers are not to assist with federal immigration enforcement, raising questions after last week’s controversial raid. And Minneapolis teachers are calling for the release of Mahdi Ali, a man who has spent nearly 15 years behind bars for a crime they say he didn’t commit.
