"Opponents have argued that the bill would drive up legal costs for associations, which would pass those along to homeowners, and otherwise punish organizations typically run by volunteers. HOAs, they argue, have stepped in to provide vital services and infrastructure increasingly outsourced by local governments.
"But supporters say they were motivated by homeowners’ stories of HOAs acting as unaccountable quasi-governments that can make arbitrary rules, like how long a car can be parked in a driveway or how long a trash bin can stay on the street, then levy fines and even initiate foreclosures over violations. Similar bills have recently passed in other states, including Florida and Georgia."

When legislators tied up Depression relief bills in the legislature in April 1933, #MN Governor Floyd B. Olson warned: "I shall declare martial law. A lot of people who are now fighting the measures because they happen to possess considerable wealth will be brought in by the provost guard. They will be obliged to give up more than they are giving up now."

It matters who your authors are. You can have an author who does the bare minimum and sells you out when it's convenient, or you can have champions who will go to the ends of the earth to pass the bill because it's the right thing to do. #KeepingNurses #MinnesotaNursesAssociation #SafeStaffingSavesLives #mnleg #SandraFeist #ErinMurphy
