St. Paul's new mayor; Congressional Farm Bill

St. Paul swore in a new mayor today. Kaohly Her, who has represented part of the city in the Minnesota House since 2019, takes the reins of the capital city.

Her is the first Hmong-American and first woman to be St. Paul's mayor. With her election, all elected city leaders will be women.

And agricultural lenders are hoping that Congress passes a new Farm Bill this year. The latest version, passed in 2018, got extended to September.
