Senator Miller said Minnesota's sister-state relationship with Taiwan began in 1984 and highlighted recent trade figures: \"Taiwan imported $3,800,000,000 worth of U.S. farm products in 2024... Taiwan was Minnesota's ninth largest export market in 2024 with $644,000,000 worth of Minnesota goods exported to Taiwan,\" Miller said. He also welcomed Director General Dennis Yang Feng Li and Vice Consul Jae Chai Ming Lin from the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Chicago, who were present at the Capitol.

The resolution was introduced with co-sponsorship noted from senators Mohammed, Jasinski and Rarick; the presiding officer acknowledged the visiting Taiwanese officials.

A sponsor told the Senate the measure \"gives the local police departments the ability to do more extensive federal background checks instead of just the statewide background checks,\" and said organizations including the Minnesota Chiefs of Police Association support the bill. The sponsor emphasized that statewide checks sometimes do not provide the criminal history information needed for some investigations, including those connected to human trafficking.

The secretary gave the bill its third reading and, after the roll call, announced 65 ayes, 0 nays and declared the bill passed and its title agreed to. Floor debate on the bill was limited to sponsor remarks and procedural votes; no amendments were recorded on the floor in the provided transcript segment.

Sponsors characterized the bill as a law-enforcement tool intended to give local agencies access to additional federal background data in specified situations.","House File 286 authorizes certain local units of government to conduct enhanced criminal background checks; sponsors said local law enforcement supports it to combat human trafficking.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6568917,"Senate approves technical follow-up to DCYF recodification after debate, 53-12",346,964000,1310000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3193128-178d7aeee1c70c73404802cfbdf0648a&start=964&end=1310","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3193128-178d7aeee1c70c73404802cfbdf0648a/thumbnail_964000.jpg","/articles/6568917/Minnesota/Senate-approves-technical-follow-up-to-DCYF-recodification-after-debate-53-12","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6568917-213eb395f4233c9248187b247d47c07d/orig.mp4?Expires=1771213379&Signature=jOxUNtEd8WedZ99e-y8wj4drj4TbEKiKRW5ZFYSBbt12OKB3wRLbriLz6a2zprG0GdVzmu2OppNdJMkSY0h1LSsdkFuAwE~S0VG6HqV5BmztC~1Gq7UOLui1wXkMT7gf8Sgbhki~4DlxUkLabJeABTVoHgf8FQH~J-R6GkxcAO-ic0Uyi5xPYL3AJ0vdMi0zaQYtG8ze8J75STRzNUZR0im2aCMQ7eV0SVZJ4y9XsOEF5uHt0aKvkmei0T2EdcJbofgwfEFRdgJqM7zC5mikP5HoY6sOug3uxgguWmqXc9ZxXrEfOerjvFG2LS59OfpReerA3o6vy0-v1TICLIGFeg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Minnesota Senate passed House File 2551 on May 5, 2025, a follow-up bill to the 2023–2024 recodification that established the Department of Children, Youth and Families (DCYF). The final roll call announced on the floor recorded 53 ayes and 12 nays.

Senator [first name not specified in transcript] Wicklund presented the measure as technical and conforming changes needed to finalize the statutory infrastructure of the new department. \"These conforming changes maintain the continuity of authorities, powers, and duties that transferred programs had at their originating agencies,\" Wicklund said on the floor, noting the bill \"has no fiscal impact.\"

Senator Abeler rose to thank reviser staff and senate counsel for their work, calling them \"the unsung heroes\" who ensure statutes are readable and accurate. The sponsor said the bill updates statutory cross references and adds DCYF to certain state advisory councils that include other executive branch agencies or commissioners. The secretary gave the bill its third reading and, after a roll call under rule 40.7, the secretary announced the tally and declared the bill passed and its title agreed to.

Floor remarks described the bill as technical recodification work tied to prior transfers from the Departments of Human Services, Education and Public Safety into DCYF during the 2023 and 2024 sessions. Sponsors emphasized the changes preserve existing authorities for transferred programs and said the bill would not change program powers or impose new costs.","House File 2551, a follow-up to the Department of Children, Youth and Families recodification, passed the Senate after sponsors described it as technical updates to transfer authorities and cross-references.",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":105,"_47":106,"_49":107,"_51":108,"_53":109,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":110,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":111,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6568922,"Senate approves technical revisers bill to correct statutes, 65-0",180,782000,962000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3193128-178d7aeee1c70c73404802cfbdf0648a&start=782&end=962","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3193128-178d7aeee1c70c73404802cfbdf0648a/thumbnail_782000.jpg","/articles/6568922/Minnesota/Senate-approves-technical-revisers-bill-to-correct-statutes-65-0","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6568922-2dcde5b023cbbf33b6ef41dff44ee5c8/orig.mp4?Expires=1771213379&Signature=Px6BUNcO3thvhm0W55Gsu4UZUtGCp1fk8k659dTEIZAC6g7itzvyLP~VuskMoNACv~ZVq-LG9T~PTzINKtwRC7VgElV2PFyRNlesuwI8IJFU3vmCF1IRjOa8BJO-TMI49C-Nl1etff80kv-iTcgJ4Y5QbkAfia7OSqzrReMXsa-NrucikQPT0fDpcp4i5BKPrU4AW~x~htrARNQz8Br2bdb066oJqcFyuspSzk8OdC-SIwUHdP2CT2~mADP0wiMjZak~QtRSgQ8q2xxBJzabyvupnTnl1KlDfZOCYJk3nMvhhikavkG3w4rHHXOi63L3MmhZQgGgtcZFRN4Ks2Z-Mg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Minnesota Senate on May 5, 2025, approved House File 3022, a revisers bill that makes technical corrections to state statutes, on a 65-0 voice roll call.

Senator Paul Limmer, who presented the bill, said it \"corrects technical errors in statutes and laws. It corrects erroneous and incomplete cross references and internal references. It corrects grammatical errors and miscellaneous drafting, engrossing, and other errors.\" The measure was described on the floor as noncontroversial.

The revisers bill updates internal statutory references, fixes drafting and grammatical mistakes and resolves incomplete cross-references created in earlier enactments. Senator Latz urged support, calling it \"a good bill\" and \"nothing controversial.\" The secretary gave the bill its third reading and the roll was called under rule 40.7; the secretary announced 65 ayes, 0 nays and the bill's title was agreed to.

Because House File 3022 consists of technical and clarifying changes rather than policy shifts, floor debate was limited to sponsor remarks and brief endorsements. The passage completes the Legislature's routine statutory housekeeping for the sections covered by the bill.
