David Bly (DFL-Northfield) will be joining Senator Little for the question and answer portion. The meeting will give folks the opportunity to ask questions and raise concerns with how bills of the past session will impact their lives. Desserts from Brick Oven Bakery and coffee from Hideaway Coffeehouse will be served.

The event is free and open to the public.

Snapshot of ACTION

Bobbi (Rice County DFL Director) and Sue (Rice County DFL Vice Chair) 

walk in the Northfield March for Science held on Saturday, April 22nd. 

The Rice County DFL passed a resolution of support for the March for Science: 

“The Rice County DFL fully supports the March for Science and their efforts in advocating the enactment of evidence-based policies in the public interest and for the common good,” said Shawn Groth, Rice County DFL Chairman. 

Many DFLers (Democrats) participated locally and at the State Capitol March. 

Here's a great video ( click here ) that from the Northfield March for Science. 

Changes to Locations of College Precincts in Northfield

The vote of the committee at the Thursday meeting has resulted in moving two of Northfield's caucus locations from the middle school onto the two college campuses.

Specific sites are being finalized, and we will have details here as soon as the official locations are determined.

This will affect DFL caucus-goers in Ward 4 Precinct 2 (residents on and near the St. Olaf campus) and Ward 1 Precinct 1 (this on and near the Carleton campus) only, and should help with traffic flow at the middle school.

Those who caucused in 2008 will recall the large turnouts of both permanent Northfield residents and college students resulted in logistical traffic issues, and we're moving to alleviate some of that congestion, while making it easier for students and others near the campuses to walk to their respective locations.
