2 February Program: (The following content on Caucuses is from the Secretary of State s website) Caucuses WHAT IS A PRECINCT CAUCUS? Precinct caucuses are meetings run by Minnesota s political parties. They are the first in a series of meetings where parties may endorse candidates, select delegates, and set goals and values (called party platforms). In 2018, one part of precinct caucuses will be a preference ballot for the candidates you want your political party to support for Governor. WHO CAN PARTICIPATE IN A CAUCUS? To participate, you must be eligible to vote in the November 2018 general election and live in the precinct. You also must generally agree with the principles of the political party hosting the caucus. WHAT HAPPENS AT THE CAUCUS? Each political party runs their caucus meetings a little differently. Check with your political party if you have specific questions. Generally, there are four main activities at a caucus: 1. Choose volunteers who will organize political activities in the precinct. This could include maintaining contact lists, holding political meetings, and helping with campaign efforts. 2. Vote for the person you want the party to support for Governor. This is called the preference ballot. The results help gauge support for candidates. 3. Discuss issues and ideas for the party to support. You can present an issue or idea for the party to support, called a resolution. If you convince other attendees to support your resolution, it will be taken to the next political convention. Eventually, your resolution could become part of the official party platform. 4. Choose delegates who will endorse candidates at future conventions. At future conventions, party delegates will endorse state and federal candidates, including for Governor. Political parties have different ways of choosing delegates at the precinct level caucus contact your party for more information February Unit Program: Diversity and Democracy Thursday February 15, :00 8:30pm St. Louis Park Town Hall 5005 Minnetonka Blvd

8 Legislative Interviews, January 13 th Senator Ron Latz Representative Cheryl Youakim Q: What are your Priorities for 2018 Session? Senator Latz - Judiciary Committee, Commerce and Consumer Protection. He will introduce forfeiture libertarian property does not belong to the government if / when forfeited. Help SW LRT Watch for legislation that I object to and play defense: Abortion related items Gun related items NRA was angry last year they didn t get anything passed Stand Your Ground like Florida Get rid of the permit to carry Budget Taxes Representative Youakim will be working on: Property Tax SW LRT Silver Alert Bill Bonding Bill for Perspectives expansion asking for $1.4M in a bipartisan bill Bill to expand Free Speech rights to High School and College. Playing defense Provisional ballot could be a bigger problem than voter ID Auto Voter Registration Motor Voter 33 bills were introduced last year to take away local control using a different definition for local control. Q: Regarding a Bonding Bill - What is your level of optimism for achieving a bonding bill this session? Senator Latz: It is supported, but there is a dispute for how big it should be. It died last year due to SWLRT. I take credit. Since 2007 and 2008 Best time to borrow is when the labor market is slow. Now the labor market and costs have increased. Rep. Youakim: Infrastructure is nonpartisan. We have to request maintenance or it will cost more later. Most companies plan for 10% of their budget to support infrastructure. The state of Minnesota has 2% of their budget go toward infrastructure. MNLARS Computer system is from the 70 s. Staffing is a big issue. Things that can be automatically done process quickly through the system, but titles and licensing from auto dealerships require a human touch. There are simply no resources. Q: Campaign Finance do you see any changes?
9 LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS ST. LOUIS PARK FEBRUARY 2018 Sen. Latz: Probably won t be any change. The $50 contribution program is back Citizen s United changes probably won t go anywhere Rep. Youakim: There is an intent to take away the power of the Administrative Law Judge. This would mean we would need the legislature to be full time. Generally the legislature creates the bills and we need the Administrative Law Judge to do the interpretation. Census is under-funded. Affordable Housing Latz & Youakim: Vouchers will come back Health and Human Services Long Term Care Complaints. Thanks to the Star Tribune series they found there are only 2 people to respond to all the complaints. Expect funding to help them out. Q: What do you want energized citizens to do? Pay attention use multiple sources Participate in Town Halls Local participation creates better buy in. Rep. Cheryl Youakim, 46B; Senator Ron Latz, 46; Carlotta Medus, LWV SLP member and Interviewer Members listening to the legislators
