The Minnesota Nurses Association legislative scorecard provides a summary of each
legislator’s vote on important nursing, health care and workforce issues, and a tool to hold
them accountable.
MNA’s Legislative All Stars
MNA commends these legislators for their exemplary leadership on issues affecting nurses, patients and working families. Legislators who scored the highest on the 2012 Legislative
Scorecard are:
Senate: Sen. Jeff Hayden
House: (three-way tie for first place) Rep. Patti Fritz, Rep. Erin Murphy, Rep. Ryan Winkler
Sen. Jeff Hayden
Rep. Patti Fritz
Rep. Erin Murphy, RN
Rep. Ryan Winkler
How to use this scorecard:
The votes scored in this scorecard were chosen based on MNA’s legislative priorities (available at www.mnnurses.org), which are set each year by
MNA’s House of Delegates.
To find out who your state legislators are, visit www.mnnurses.org/grassrootsaction.
Legislators’ scores were calculated based on these criteria:
1. One point was awarded each time a legislator voted in support of MNA’s core legislative priorities. A point was deducted each time a legislator voted against our priorities.
2. A bonus point was awarded each time a legislator chief-authored a bill that addressed one of MNA’s priorities. A point was deducted for chief-
authoring legislation counter to our priorities.
3. If a legislator did not vote on a bill, he or she received zero points.
4. Legislators who supported nurses during 2012 contract or organizing campaigns were awarded an extra point.
The 2012 Legislative Landscape
This legislative session was dominated by complaints of
hyper-partisanship and negotiations on a Vikings Stadium.
Behind those headlines, attacks on nursing practice and
workers’ rights intensified and triggered an unprecedented
show of grassroots activism by nurses and our allies.
One illustration of the partisan gridlock at the Capitol is
the fact that this session the Legislature passed the second
fewest bills in Minnesota history. This lack of measurable accomplishments makes it harder to score the work legislators
did, and it makes the behind-the-scenes work even more
important. It’s difficult to quantify the work that our allies
did behind the scenes to stop harmful bills and to advance
important priorities for nurses, so this work isn’t necessarily
reflected in a legislator’s score.
MNA worked with our allies behind the scenes to address
many issues that are very important to the nursing practice
and health care access. These issues did not come up for a
specific vote, but our work this session brought them to the
attention of legislators, the media and the public.
•
•
Safe Staffing: After years of broken promises from hospitals to work directly with nurses to address
patient safety issues that resulted from inadequate staffing, MNA nurses introduced legislation with the bipartisan support of authors Rep. Larry Howes (R) and Sen. Jeff Hayden (DFL). The 2012 Staffing for Patient Safety Act includes setting a maximum patient assignment for Registered Nurses based on factors including nursing intensity and patient
acuity, and would require hospital administrators
to work directly with nurses to ensure that adequate
resources are provided to keep patients safe. We will continue to pursue safe staffing at the Capitol, as well as at the bargaining table and at the bedside.
HMO Transparency: While no bills made it through the legislative process, MNA and our allies continued asking hard questions about the nearly $4 billion a year that HMOs receive to administer public health care programs. As a result, the federal government started an investigation and held hearings in
Washington, DC to determine if our state Medicaid program is overpaying these insurance companies.
MNA will continue to push for transparency,
including third party audits, so taxpayers can finally learn how much of this money goes to provide actual health care, and what goes to insurance
company profits.
• Willmar State Mental Health Facility: As part of last session’s budget cuts, the Willmar state mental health facility was slated for closure this spring. Due to the work of MNA nurses as well as our labor allies and Willmar legislators, the legislature included
funding in the Health and Human Services bill to keep this much-needed facility open for another year, giving lawmakers and the Department of
Human Services more time to find a permanent solution.
• Nursing Scope of Practice: While no legislation was introduced this session, the Board of Nursing is
proposing changes to the Nurse Practice Act that
we expect to see in the next legislative session.
Their proposal includes expanding the LPN scope of practice to include assessment and delegation.
Public “listening sessions” were held all over the state this spring and summer to seek opinions on this
proposal. It’s critical that nurses voice their concerns about this proposal.
• Budget Amendments: Proposed constitutional amendments that would have made it nearly
impossible for future legislatures to raise revenue and would have created even more budgetary
gimmicks and gridlock, never made it through the legislative process. Early in the session, MNA nurses
lobbied legislators against these proposals at our Day on the Hill. It is the legislators’ job to create a budget,
and we believe they need to do the job they were elected to do.
Bipartisan Alliances
Despite the increasingly partisan nature of the Capitol, MNA
was able to work with legislators of both parties to achieve
real accomplishments this session. Nurses’ values and priorities are non-partisan. That was truer this session than ever
before. MNA members built and strengthened relationships
with legislators on both sides of the aisle, especially related
to the issues of Right to Work, making neglect of a vulnerable adult a felony, and HMO accountability. MNA also reintroduced our Safe Staffing bill, with bipartisan authors
Senator Jeff Hayden (DFL-Minneapolis) and Representative
Larry Howes (R-Walker), demonstrating that patient safety
isn’t a partisan issue. This session also saw the passage of the
most bipartisan Health and Human Services budget bill in
recent memory, authored by Representative Jim Abeler (RAnoka) that contained many good items for nurses and patients, including language keeping the Willmar Community
Transitional Services facility open.
MNA members connected with legislators of both parties,
which made us more effective and respected at the Capitol.
This led to several legislative victories for nurses, patients
and the community.
Right to Work
One of the most important ways our bipartisan alliances
paid off this year was on the issue of Right to Work. While
this bill to weaken unions was authored by Republicans and
backed by major corporations, there were many Republican
legislators (joining with all of the Democratic legislators)
who knew Right to Work was wrong for Minnesota. Mostly
behind the scenes, these legislators worked to keep the bill
from moving forward. Good jobs and the right to a voice
in the workplace should not be partisan issue, and we are
grateful to all of the Legislators who stood with us to oppose this unfair, unnecessary and unsafe bill.
Grassroots Nurse Power
Nurses showed even more power at the Capitol this year
than ever, with our Day on the Hill early in the session, and
tremendous turnout at hearings on Right to Work and the
National Nurse Licensure Compact. In addition, nurses
made an unprecedented number of contacts with their legislators about these bills.
As we continue to defend the nursing practice and the
rights of workers, while advancing the causes of patient
safety, access to health care and a fair state budget, nurses
need to keep up that grassroots action. One way we’re doing that is through the new Regional Action Councils across
the state. Six groups have formed (Northwest Minnesota,
Northeast Minnesota, West Metro, East Metro, Southwest
Minnesota and Southeast Minnesota) to get the word out
to nurses about policy issues, as well as to do the electoral
and outreach work to increase support of nurses’ values in
our communities. If you would like to be part of the Regional Action Council in your area, please contact:

Bill Descriptions
Name
Description
Interstate Nurse Licensure
Compact – SF230.
Would have made Minnesota a part of the Interstate
Nurse Licensure Compact, which allows nurses with a
license in one Compact state to practice in any Compact
state. Would lower Minnesota’s nursing standards, make
patients less safe by allowing unsafe nurses to easily
move from state to state, and make it easier for employers to move large numbers of strikebreakers across state
lines.
“Due to overwhelming advocacy
from nurses and other labor allies,
Governor Dayton indicated to MNA
that he would veto the bill, but it
never came to his desk. The House
and Senate adjourned before taking a
final vote on the Compact.
A “no” vote is a good vote for nurses.
DEFEATED”
Opposed
Part of a national effort to dramatically weaken unions
and the rights of union members, funded by large corporations. Workers in Right to Work states earn considerably less than those in states with full union membership, making this bill very risky just as our economy is
picking up again.
The tremendous outpouring of opposition from nurses and fellow union
members influenced enough DFL
and Republican legislators to stop
the Right to Work amendment from
completing the legislative process.
Despite multiple attempts by proponents from the beginning of session
to the very end to pass this amendment, union members and our allies
stood together and spoke with one
voice about this unfair, unsafe and
unnecessary legislation that would
tip the scales in favor of big corporations and against working people. A
“no” vote is a good vote for nurses.
DEFEATED.
Opposed
Minnesota was one of the few states in the nation that
did not treat neglect of a vulnerable adult as a felony. In
response to recent news stories about terrible neglect
cases, county attorneys and the bill authors crafted the
bill to stiffen the penalties for neglect. MNA worked with
the authors of this bill to add first-in-the-nation language that protects both vulnerable adults and health
care workers. Unlike every other state that punishes neglect of a vulnerable adult as a felony, the new Minnesota law includes language protecting nurses and other
health care workers from punishment for neglect that
was due to circumstances outside their control, such as
unsafe staffing levels. Minnesota is the first state ever to
use unsafe staffing levels as an affirmative defense.
A “yes” vote is a good vote for nurses.
Passed both bodies of the legislature
unanimously and SIGNED INTO LAW
by the Governor.
SUPPORTED
Unified Trust Accounts
Bill - HF8.
Authors:
Sen. David Hann (R) and
Rep. Steve Gottwalt (R)
This bill would have put millions of health care dollars in
the hands of the insurance industry with no oversight or
protections for Minnesotans. It would have turned our
health insurance exchange (the marketplace mandated
by the Affordable Care Act to make purchasing health
care more efficient and affordable) over to a complicated, costly system of insurance industry brokers who
would manage our health care funds, while also getting
paid by insurance companies themselves.
. This bill passed both bodies of the Legislature but was vetoed
by Governor Dayton. A “no” vote is a
good vote for nurses.
Opposed
First Omnibus Tax Bill –
HF2337/SF1972.
Authors:
Sen. Julianne Ortman (R)
and
Rep. Greg Davids (R)
This bill did nothing to address the inequality in our tax
system – for example, the richest paying a smaller percentage of their income in taxes than the middle class
and working class. While the authors intended the bill to
stimulate the economy and create jobs, it probably would
have done neither, while giving tax cuts to businesses for
things they already do. The bill would have also added to
the state’s structural deficit in future years, because the
tax cuts it contained were not paid for. This would put our
public services, like already strapped schools and health
care programs, at risk.
DEFEATED. This bill passed both bodies of the Legislature but was vetoed
by Governor Dayton. A “no” vote is a
good vote for nurses.

Onward to the Election!
The session is over, but our work is not done. If we want to stop playing defense on bad
legislation like Right to Work and the Compact, and start playing offense on policies that
will improve nurse staffing and increase access to affordable health care, we must focus
on electing candidates who will support and champion nurses’ priorities and values.
Regional Action Councils in every corner of the state are mobilizing nurses to help
get our endorsed candidates elected. There is no partisan litmus-test for MNA’s
endorsement. We have endorsed Democrats and Republicans who support nurses.
If you would like to participate or learn more about the Regional Action Councils, please
contact the MNA Political Organizer who works in your region:
