Employer Action: The Governor vetoed a bill put forth by the Minnesota State Legislature to prevent cities from passing ordinances such as these so, absent further intervention from the courts, these new ordinances will take effect on July 1, 2017. Employers who have not yet done so would be wise to plan now to ensure compliance with these new ordinances.
