Gov. Tim Walz on Tuesday signed into law a proposal that guarantees in state law the right to abortion and other reproductive health care options.
The move backstops the current right to an abortion laid out in a 1995 Minnesota Supreme Court decision, and it expands that to include access to birth control, sterilization, family planning support and other services. The law also prohibits local governments from enacting policies that infringe on those rights.

I’m a begrudging supporter of the DFL, but good on Walz and the lege for this.

The Maine legislature is working on a similar package. Keeping my fingers crossed!

The opportunity to see the “green comet” is soon ending.
It is best to go to some place with minimal “light pollution” preferably after midnight when it is higher in the sky, and use binoculars with low magnification.
Here is a link to a small star chart that will help you locate the comet.
