On Election Day, voters will have the choice of supporting or rejecting a Constitutional Amendment that would fund natural resources and the arts. Phil Krinkie of the Taxpayers League and Paul Austin of Conservation Minnesota join Midday to debate the issue before voters head to the polls. Minnesota Supreme Court Justice Lori Gildea is defending her seat on the state's Supreme Court from challenger Judge Deborah Hedlund. Both candidates join Midday for a debate before Election Day.
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.
