Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman says she has tested positive for the coronavirus. But the Brooklyn Park Democrat says she won’t be sidelined in the final days of the 2022 legislative session.

Lawmakers have yet to agree on what to do with around $7 billion of the state’s $9.25 billion budget surplus.
