This bill proposes the withdrawal of Minnesota from the Agreement Among the States to Elect the President by National Popular Vote. It amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 208.05, to remove references to the agreement, specifically eliminating provisions that state the State Canvassing Board would declare candidates for presidential electors based on the agreement's guidelines. The bill also includes a directive for the governor to inform other states of Minnesota's withdrawal from the agreement.

Additionally, the bill repeals Minnesota Statutes 2024, sections 208.051 and 208.052, which previously enacted the agreement and established its precedence over conflicting state laws. The repeal signifies a complete withdrawal from the framework that governed the appointment of presidential electors based on a national popular vote, thereby reverting to the traditional electoral process.
