Minnesota Migration Act established, account established, funding provided to study and provide reparation grants, report required, and money appropriated.

Minnesota House File 2094 establishes the Minnesota Migration Act Account in the state treasury to fund a study and provide reparation grants for American descendants of chattel slavery residing in Minnesota. The bill creates a Minnesota Migration Act Advisory Council to administer the grants and requires a report on the program's implementation. It also mandates an official state apology for historical injustices, including Minnesota's role in holding Dred Scott in bondage, the 1920 Duluth lynching, the displacement of the Rondo neighborhood for highway construction, and systemic racism affecting Black communities. The legislation appropriates state funds for these purposes but does not specify grant amounts or eligibility criteria beyond the defined recipient group.
