Minneapolis City Council committee meets over workers’ comp claims

The committee on Wednesday will consider almost $3 million dollars in workers’ compensation claims. The city has already settled $9 million dollars’ worth of claims this year, most with police officers who filed claims for PTSD after George Floyd’s murder and the civil unrest that followed.
