Minnesota State Senator Mark Koran (R-North Branch) returned to the capitol on Monday, February 12 for the beginning of the 2024 session of the Minnesota Legislature. The agenda and debate this session will be shaped in large part by the forthcoming February revenue forecast, scheduled to be released later this month, which will detail the state’s financial picture. A report issued by the office of Minnesota Management and Budget last December projected a small budget surplus for the upcoming session and a $2.5 billion deficit in the following budget cycle.
“It is a privilege to be back in St. Paul again serving the great people of Chisago and Isanti Counties in the Minnesota Senate,” Senator Koran said. “Every time I set foot in the capitol, I am humbled by the responsibility and the trust you have given me. It will be a shorter session, but I still expect the Democrat majorities of the House and Senate to pursue some controversial agenda items. I would encourage everyone to subscribe to my official email list to stay up to date on everything happening in St. Paul, and reach out to me if you have any questions, ideas, or concerns.”
Sen. Koran is serving his 3rd term. He is the Republican Lead on the Elections Committee, and serves as a member of the State and Local Government and Veterans Committee. He represents Senate District 28, which includes communities in Chisago and Isanti Counties.
