Readers know we've long appreciated Roseville DFL state representative Jamie Becker-Finn's leadership in crafting policy about Chronic Wasting Disease. Her No Child Left Inside legislation is also admirable.
Minnesota's Second Gentleman, former MPR journalist Tom Weber, tweeted out his own admiration:
The MN lawmaker who does the most good w/ the least attention has to be Rep. @JBeckerFinn. She betters every issue she works on.

This @Rev_Dr_Hunter podcast will explain why: JBF is rooted in incredible values we should hope from all #mnleg lawmakers.https://t.co/vJKozvut0R
The Podcast is worth your time. Weber is right.
The introduction and interview begins about nine minutes in. The interview was taped on January 7.
