Eligibility requirements for caucus participation reinstated.
HF 3720 reinstates specific eligibility requirements for Minnesota legislators to participate in party caucuses, directly affecting state lawmakers seeking caucus membership. The bill revives Minnesota Statutes section 202A.16, subdivisions 1-3, which had been removed, applying retroactively from July 1, 2023. This restores the prior rules governing who qualifies to join legislative party caucuses, without creating new policy or altering voting procedures.
