Minnesota's GOP minority 'unimpressed' with Democrat Gov. Mark Dayton's 'unsession'

Minnesota, long home to strange political ventures such as wrestler Jesse “The Body” Ventura’s stint as governor, and former “Saturday Night Live” cast member Al Franken‘s election as senator, has accomplished another first: A legislative “unsession.”

For the 2014 legislative session, Gov. Mark Dayton and the Democratic-Farmer-Labor majorities in the state House and Senate set about repealing hundreds of laws. The unsession, as they called their activities, is the first of its kind in Minnesota. According to Dayton’s website, the governor and his party undertook the unsession to make Minnesota’s state government “better, faster, simpler, and more efficient for Minnesotans.”
