Duluth Stakeholders gather to address Capitol Days agenda

DULUTH, Minn.– Preparations are underway for the annual “Duluth and St. Louis County days at the Capitol”

City of Duluth, County Commissioners and the Duluth Area Chamber of Commerce got together this morning to nail down a plan to advocate for key legislative priorities.

Duluth Mayor Roger Reinert said the agenda will remain the same as last year including investment into a regional water treatment plan.

“If you know me, you know that I love business. I come from a background of business and investing. And I bring that mindset, and I challenge for all of us to bring that mindset to legislative work as well. Because whether it’s investing, or legislative work, at its core, we need vision, we need discipline and we need time horizons. We have to think about that when we go down at the capitol,” said Matt Baumgartner, President Duluth Area Chamber of Commerce.

Duluth and St. Louis County days at the Capitol will be taking place on March 18th and 19th.
