A statewide coalition is working to reverse the trend of declining vaccination rates across Minnesota. A federal judge has set a hearing for next week to hear why the government believes it shouldn’t be held in contempt of court for violating an injunction barring immigration actions at a Minneapolis church. The U.S. imposed high tariffs on Canadian goods over the weekend after trade talks between the two countries broke down.
