SF 3664 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Omnibus Jobs and Economic Development policy and supplemental appropriations

SF 3664 repeals unfunded programs within Minnesota's Department of Employment and Economic Development, specifically removing sections of law (like 116J.437, 116J.438, and 116J.617) that created initiatives without dedicated funding. It amends related statutes to remove outdated grant priority criteria and clean water fund provisions, ensuring consistency after the repeals. The bill directly affects the state agency and any programs or funding mechanisms tied to the repealed sections. This is a procedural adjustment to eliminate non-operational legal provisions, not a new policy.

MODERATE

The bill was updated from its introduction to its first engrossment version, incorporating significant substantive changes. The text replaced the original repeal of economic development programs with new appropriations for specific workforce grants, a modification to a rural cancer institute pilot, and a transfer of funds. Additionally, the bill added provisions designating certain unemployment and paid leave appeals judges as judicial officials to protect their personal information from public disclosure.

Scope change

The bill's scope shifted from repealing existing economic development statutes to creating new funding streams for targeted workforce programs and modifying the Rural Cancer Institute pilot to prioritize Minnesota clinicians.

FISCAL

New grants totaling over $10 million were added for specific organizations, including Wallin Educational Partners, New Pathways, People Serving People, a local news talent pipeline, youth training programs, and a PGA Championship events package.

The appropriation for the Rural Cancer Institute pilot program was modified to require prioritization of Minnesota clinicians and students and extended the availability of funds until June 30, 2028.

A transfer of $4,633,000 was added from the Minnesota forward fund account to the general fund to balance the budget changes.

DEFINITION

New language was added to define certain unemployment insurance and paid leave appeals judges as 'judicial officials,' which restricts the public disclosure of their personal information and real property records.

SCOPE

The original text, which called for the repeal of several Minnesota Statutes and Rules related to the green economy and tourism loans, was removed and replaced with new appropriations.
