the path to victory

Every year the state of Minnesota calls for a "session" In order for the ethnic studies bill to become a law, it needs to go through the full process in the House of Representatives while it also moves in the Senate. Once both chambers vote to pass the law, it then goes to the Governor to sign and become a law!
