Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to employment; modifying the definition of employer for purposes of paid leave to exclude townships; amending Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 268B.01, subdivision 18.

AI Summary

This bill modifies the definition of "employer" for purposes of paid leave in Minnesota by specifically excluding townships that meet a certain revenue threshold from being considered employers under the law. The bill amends an existing statute that defines employers for paid leave purposes, which currently includes various types of organizations, government entities, and local government bodies. The key change is the insertion of language that explicitly removes townships meeting the revenue threshold outlined in section 367.36, subdivision 1, paragraph (c) from the definition of employers. Additionally, the bill removes a redundant clause that separately mentioned charter schools as employers, since charter schools are now implicitly included in the broader list of municipal or local government entities. The modification ensures that certain townships with specific revenue characteristics will not be subject to the paid leave requirements that apply to other types of employers in Minnesota.
