Committee reviews Department of Human Services' revalidation process after it triggered agency to disenroll providers

More than a dozen people facing conspiracy charges in connection with anti-ICE protests are expected back in Minneapolis federal court Wednesday afternoon.

A Minnesota Senate committee will meet Wednesday to discuss the Department of Human Services' revalidation process. The process triggered the agency to disenroll some providers.

Leaders in three rural Minnesota counties are giving rave reviews to a pilot program aimed at improving emergency medical response time. They are testing out “sprint medics” — paramedics who respond to calls in a pick up truck equipped with advanced life support gear, instead of an ambulance.

Gov. Tim Walz says he will accept a salary raise starting Wednesday recommended by the state compensation council. It will increase the governor's annual base pay from $175,000 to $200,000.

Metro Transit will replace Blue Line trains with buses starting Tuesday until August 19. The Green Line train will also use buses until July 26, and for a few days mid-August, but only between the West Bank and Target Field stations in Minneapolis.

Rain returns Wednesday and we've got severe weather chances along with hot temperatures.
