LIVE VIDEO: Minnesota Legislature Vikings Stadium Floor Debate, Vote

Watch the action as it happens here as the full MN House takes up bill.

 

Watch video via The UpTake as the Minnesota House of Representatives debates and votes on the Vikings stadium issue on Monday. The Minnesota Senate may follow shortly with its own floor debate and vote. Also on tap: Action on a bonding bill for state construction projects.

How will Fridley's representatives vote on the stadium bill? Fridley Patch has polled Fridley's delegation at the state Capitol by email to get their views on the Vikings stadium bill, now set for floor votes Monday:

  • Sen. Pam Wolf (R-51) said she planned to vote against the bill.
  • Rep. Tom Tillberry (DFL-51B) said he hadn't decided.
  • Sen. Barb Goodwin (DFL-50) hasn't responded. When she last had an opportunity to vote on the bill in committee, she abstained.
  • Reps. Carolyn Laine (DFL-50A) and Kate Knuth (DFL-50B) haven't responded.

The other question is what Fridley's representatives will say about the bill during the floor debates. If you hear them speak, please leave a comment below with a quote or the gist of what they said.
