Minnesota Attorney General Skip Humphrey may be investigating Major League Baseball. Commissioner Bud Selig and Twins owner Carl Pohlad say they've received questionnaires from Humphrey's office that indicate he's interested in challenging Baseball's 76-year-old anti-trust-exemption. The exemption allows baseball to operate as a monopoly, and many of baseball's critics say it makes it easier for teams to pressure taxpayers for financial help, as the Twins did last year.
In 2008, Minnesota's voters passed the Clean Water, Land and Legacy Amendment to the Minnesota Constitution: to protect drinking water sources; to protect, enhance, and restore wetlands, prairies, forests, and fish, game, and wildlife habitat; to preserve arts and cultural heritage; to support parks and trails; and to protect, enhance, and restore lakes, rivers, streams, and groundwater.
Efforts to digitize this initial assortment of thousands of historical audio material was made possible through the Minnesota Legacy Amendment’s Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund. A wide range of Minnesota subject matter is represented within this collection.
