HF 2792 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Certain legal fees and expenses relating to Minnesota Chamber of Commerce v. Choi funding provided, and money appropriated.

This bill appropriates $900,000 from the state general fund to cover legal fees and expenses if a court orders the government to pay them in the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce v. Choi lawsuit (23-CV-02015). The Campaign Finance Board would pay these fees on behalf of all government defendants if a court grants the request. The funds are a one-time allocation available until June 30, 2026, and only trigger if the court awards fees to the plaintiff. It directly affects the government entities involved in the case by providing funding for court-ordered legal costs.
