Passed my bill today that makes the drivers permit written test available online. But unfortunately @GovTimWalz wouldnt agree to third party drivers license testing. Backlog of 125,000 drivers tests expected by end of the year =

Phil & I went for a fall drive today...I told him we just had to make a couple of stops along the way. = So many nice people on the route! Thank you for all the support! d<�<�d<�<� https://t.co/pfVrxIg0XX
This is unacceptable & its why the Senate passed my bipartisan bill to allow 3rd party driving schools to also administer drivers tests. The state projects a backlog of 110,000+ tests by the end of the year, but unfortunately the @mnhouseDFL refused to consider the bill. https://t.co/VtBTKq9ben
I am still on a mission to get this passed (again) & onto the Governor to sign. How many months is acceptable to wait to take your drivers license test. Eight?! I say not. https://t.co/EZVHt9G5cU
My bill to let 3rd party testers administer driver's tests just passed the Senate. 13,000+ MN drivers tests were cancelled because of the pandemic & they estimate a backlog of 110,000+ tests by end of the year. This bill will help eliminate the backlog! https://t.co/dfZzWEkjEq
The State of Minnesota estimates a backlog of 110,000+ drivers tests by the end of the year! We passed my bill yesterday to let private driving schools also administer the road test. This will end the backlog. The House should pass this bill right away! https://t.co/J73jq60lfF
Thanks to Gov. Walzs support, my bill will make a common sense change and reduce the driver's test backlog. I hope this creative solution will save many families extra headache and wasted time. https://t.co/js4EUOVCWv
No parking at Target in Woodbury. Yup. Makes sense to me.
So happy to have Greg from the Minnesota Broadcasting Association & my Corrections Officers from Oak Park Heights & Stillwater stop by to discuss their issues. d Afternoon was spent presenting my drivers license testing bill before the Transportation Committee. It passed.=L https://t.co/Mh7WsKAh8y
Lets reduce the drivers license testing backlog! With todays passage of my bill, its a mile in the right direction! https://t.co/IJ1D4O09Kp
