Click on the link above, then type in your street address. You'll get contact info for your state & federal representatives...

To bad it isn't 100%.

I type in my address and it tells me that I am in 23 and my senator is Kathy Sheran, but I am in 24 and my senator is Julie Rosen.

Here is link to a map that may help, it shows the district border using colors.

Hmmm - it's more than a bit disturbing that information from a state-run web site doesn't give accurate information about something as simple as who one's representatives are...

Not that I did before, but how am I supposed to trust that they'll run anything else smoothly if they can't be bothered to get the most basic information right?

Considering that we are approaching the end of the regular session and there is a great deal of daylight between Dayton and the Republicans on the budget, it would not surprise me if this was/is a/the bargaining chip. In the negotiations, if there are any going on. But, would anyone be surprised if this was a bone they attempted to throw him so he might go along with their budget?

We were there from 11 am to 7:30 pm. No action out of the Republican Senate leadership.

They will probably now complain that they have "run out of time."

No further comment.

Hanging on by a thread, but for all intents and purposes, it's dead.
