Minnesota Senate Journal

The Journal of the Senate is a record of Senate floor proceedings. Daily session journals are generally published on the web the day following adjournment for each session day. Beginning in 2025, a legislative day is counted when either house of the legislature gives any bill a third reading, adopts a rule of procedure or organization, elects a university regent, confirms a gubernatorial appointment, or votes to override a gubernatorial veto. At the end of each calendar year the contents of the daily session journals are compiled to create a published collection referred to as the permanent journal.
