ST. PAUL – The Minnesota Senate has joined the state House in approving a set of police accountability measures as part of a broader public safety budget bill.
The Senate approved it 45-21 early Wednesday following a 75-59 vote Tuesday night in the Minnesota House. The bill contains limits on no-knock warrants and on the use of informants.
It attracted Republican support in both chambers, while some Democrats who said it didn’t go far enough voted no. It now goes to Democratic Gov. Tim Walz for his signature.
