AI Summary
This bill modifies the membership of two state councils that advise on tourism and business development in Minnesota. Specifically, it changes the composition of the Explore Minnesota for Business Council by removing the commissioner of employment and economic development as a co-chair and adding a representative from that department, while also clarifying the representation from small businesses and Native American tribes. For the Explore Minnesota Tourism Council, the bill reduces the total number of voting members from 35 to 25, streamlines the representation from statewide tourism associations, and adjusts the number of representatives from the five designated tourism marketing regions. Additionally, it changes the meeting frequency requirement for the Tourism Council from at least four times a year to at least two times a year.
