The Minnesota legislature enjoys a national reputation for confronting difficult state problems and devising innovative ways of dealing with them.

In 1985 the legislature commissioned a study to analyze this troubling situation. Tribune of the People is the result of that study.Legislative bodiesMinnesotaLegislative bodies328.776Hanson Royce141162MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910814607503321Tribune of the people3964926UNINA
