This bill mandates that the governor of Minnesota must deliver a state of the state address to the legislature within 30 days of the commencement of each regular legislative session. The proposed legal language will be codified in Minnesota Statutes, chapter 4, under a new section designated as [4.033].

The introduction of this requirement aims to ensure timely communication between the governor and the legislature regarding the state’s priorities and issues at the beginning of each legislative session. This change is intended to enhance the legislative process by providing lawmakers with the governor's insights and agenda early in the session.
