House committee co-chairs and membership named

The details of the power-sharing arrangement in the Minnesota House came into greater focus over the last few weeks, with both caucuses naming their committee co-chairs and full committee membership for most committees. An agreement previously announced between the House DFL and Republican caucuses stipulated that committees will be split evenly by party, including the co-chairs.

Key GMNP committees and co-chairs are as follows:

• Capital Investment: Rep. Fue Lee (DFL-Minneapolis) and Rep. Mary Franson (R-Alexandria)
• Children and Families Finance and Policy: Rep. Carlie Kotyza-Witthuhn (DFL-Eden Prairie) and Rep. Nolan West (R-Blaine)
• Labor and Workforce Development Finance and Policy: Rep. Dave Baker (R-Willmar) and Rep. Dave Pinto (DFL-St. Paul)
• Housing Finance and Policy: Rep. Mike Howard (DFL-Richfield) and Rep. Spencer Igo (R-Wabana Township)
