In this Friday, May 3, 2019, photo, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz speaks at a news conference in the state Capitol in St. Paul, Minnesota, in favor of a proposal for paid family and medical leave. Listening to the governor is Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan. There's a new mix at Minnesota's big conference table for the always-contentious negotiations at the end of the legislative session over the big questions of taxes and spending. It's the first budget for Walz and the first as the top House Democrat for Speaker Melissa Hortman. GOP Senate Majority Leader Paul Gazelka is back and will play a decisive role as the May 20 adjournment looms. (AP Photo/Steve Karnowski)
