AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Kids Online Privacy: A bipartisan bill restricting social media accounts for kids under 16 cleared both chambers and is headed to Gov. Tim Walz, with promises of tighter age verification, automatic privacy settings, and bans on ads targeting children. Wildfire Emergency: Walz declared a peacetime emergency and mobilized the Minnesota National Guard as northern fires spread—Flanders is about 1,200 acres and 0% contained, while the Stewart Trail Fire is around 355 acres and 30% contained, with evacuations and damage already reported. Crime & Scams: Minnesota moved to ban crypto kiosks after seniors lost nearly $1M to kiosk fraud, citing high-pressure schemes that are hard to trace once money is sent. Legislative Ripples: In Washington, a Senate parliamentarian removed security funding tied to Trump’s White House ballroom, putting Republican plans in jeopardy. Sports/Local Color: The NFL schedule is officially out, and Minnesota’s sports scene keeps buzzing—from wildfire coverage to a busy weekend of games and community stories.
