On March 20, 2025, the Minnesota House of Representatives voted to refer House File 1378, a bill concerning filing periods for statements of economic interest, to the Elections, Finance and Government Operations Committee for further consideration.
The Minnesota House of Representatives on March 20 referred House File 1378, a bill addressing filing periods for statements of economic interest, back to the Elections, Finance and Government Operations Committee.
Representative Freiburg, a member from Hennepin County, told the House the bill “is a bill dealing with, filing periods for statements of economic interest.” He said the measure had been heard in the elections committee and sent to the general register and that members wanted to return it to the Elections, Finance and Government Operations Committee to “make it even better.” Freiberg said he had spoken with both committee chairs about the request. “So I’ve spoken with both chairs,” he said.
Members took a voice vote on the motion to refer. The chair called for ayes and nays and announced the motion prevailed.
