SF 3663 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Explore Minnesota councils membership modifications

SF 3663 modifies membership rules for two Explore Minnesota advisory councils. It reduces the Tourism Council from 35 to 25 voting members and adds a Department of Employment and Economic Development representative to the Business Council. The bill changes how members are selected, including replacing "fourteen" statewide tourism representatives with "four" and adding five regional tourism representatives. These changes affect how the councils advise on tourism marketing and economic development strategies. The bill focuses solely on council composition, not tourism policy outcomes.
