Nurses and health care workers in the Twin Cities and Twin Ports voted this morning to clear the way for a strike. We talk with the union about why they are considering that step and what's changed since their last strike in 2022.

The shooter who attacked two Minnesota lawmakers and their spouses in their homes was allegedly dressed as a police officer when he came to their doors. That's raising questions about how officers identify themselves to the public.

Plus, the U.S. Supreme Court recently upheld a ban on gender-affirming care in Tennessee. The ruling won't affect Minnesota law, but it could bring more families to the state seeking care.

And we meet the host of a radio show that's all about rural Minnesota cooking!

Today’s Minnesota Music Minute was “Company” by Alica Thao. The Song of the Day was “500 Dollars'“ by the Lamont Cranston Band.
