Summary
The federal government plans to stop reporting on the race, gender and other demographics of workers across industries. But the Minnesota Department of Human Rights is asking it to keep tracking that data. I'll talk to the state's human rights commissioner. First responders in Burnsville are working with psychiatrists to learn how to respond to mental health crises. We'll learn about the new partnership. Minnesota students are going back to the classroom. And school leaders are now required to have cell phone policies. I'll talk to three high school principals about their approach. Plus, some students who stayed home during Operation Metro Surge never returned to their schools. An education reporter looked into the numbers. Our Minnesota Music Minute was “That Was The Moment” by LASALLE and our Song of the Day was “Puppers (Bandit's Song)” by Maximiano.
