The Four Main Things

Health Care - Imagine world-class health care for Minnesotans at a world-competitive cost per person – a system that delivers the best health and best care at the best price, for every Minnesotan.

Education - Imagine doubling the odds of Minnesota students getting a college degree or a technical education that matches their talents, interests, and the job market.

Environment - Imagine Minnesota as the nation’s leader in reversing the pollution of our lakes and streams, reducing dependence on oil, repairing and preventing damage to the environment, and reinforcing economic competitiveness.

Transportation - Imagine getting to your child’s soccer game, arriving home for a relaxed family dinner, or having a package delivered - all on time.
