David Kelliher '86 is the Director of Public Policy and Community Relations at the Minnesota Historical Society. In that position, David advocates for budget and policy proposals for the MHS as well as the broader history and historic preservation community. While every legislative session takes on a life of its own, Minnesota faced unprecedented budget deficits and new players in both the legislative and executive branches this year. David will recount how we got to this point in our state’s budget, from his perspective, and how these trends played out on the Capitol stage this year, resulting in an unprecedented 20-day state government shutdown.
