Minnesota sues Trump administration over executive orders related to transgender people

Gov. Tim Walz delivers his State of the State speech tonight to a joint session of the Minnesota Legislature.

Minnesota is suing President Trump’s administration over executive orders related to transgender people. Trump’s directives seek to override policies like those in place in Minnesota that allow for broad participation of transgender youth in sports. His administration is threatening to withhold funding from the state and other states if they don’t allow those directives.

A federal judge has ordered the Department of Homeland Security to temporarily restore the student visas of five Concordia University graduate students. The five are citizens of India and earned master’s degrees in information technology and management.

Fairview Southdale Hospital in Edina went on lockdown for about an hour yesterday because of a domestic assault involving an armed man.
