SF 3112 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Minnesota Human Rights Act statute of limitations modifications provision

SF 3112 extends the deadline for filing discrimination claims under Minnesota's Human Rights Act from 10 years to 11 years after the discriminatory act occurs. It also suspends the statute of limitations during voluntary dispute resolution processes like mediation or arbitration, provided the respondent notifies the relevant authorities in writing. If the respondent fails to provide this notice, they cannot later claim the deadline has passed unless 11 years plus the suspension period has elapsed. This bill directly affects individuals filing discrimination claims and the organizations or entities they accuse.
