Bill > SF3422

This bill appropriates $2 million in fiscal year 2026 from the state general fund to the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development to provide a grant to Indigenous Roots, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. The funding is specifically designated to help Indigenous Roots acquire, design, renovate, furnish, and equip a property adjacent to their existing Cultural Arts Center in St. Paul. The goal of the expansion is to increase programming capacity for supporting and incubating small businesses along the Intertribal Cultural Corridor in St. Paul and surrounding communities. The appropriation is considered a one-time funding allocation and will remain available until the project is either completed or abandoned, in accordance with state financial regulations. The bill stipulates that the funding will become effective immediately following its final enactment.
