Earlier this week we heard about a new bill that would do away with the subminimum wage for Minnesotans with disabilities, based on recommendations from a state task force.

For more perspective on this issue, MPR News host Tom Crann talked with C. Ford Runge. He is the Distinguished McKnight University Professor of Applied Economics and Law at the University of Minnesota, and has a daughter who works in a sheltered workshop.
