Share Your Input on our Natural Resources
The Legislative-Citizen Commission on Minnesota Resources (LCCMR) is seeking input from Minnesotans. This bipartisan commission is working on a strategic plan for the Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund. Once it’s completed, the plan will guide efforts to preserve our state’s air, water, land, wildlife, and other natural resources for the next six years. You can share your feedback by completing an anonymous survey, which is available here.
High School Page Program

- Assisting members and staff during House floor sessions in the House Chamber.
- Participating in a mock committee hearing designed to develop students' leadership skills and to inspire them to think critically about the issues confronting our state.
- Individual meetings with state representatives designed to allow students to discuss the issues that matter most to them.
- Meetings with constitutional officers, members of the judiciary, lobbyists, and members of the media.
The programs are each 1 week long, and applications are taken until November 21st, 2019. Find more information here, and start an application here!

Sincerely,
Rep. Tou Xiong
