Minnesota HF 548 (2007)

From Sunshine Review

House Bill 548 is Minnesota legislation that will be enacted by 2008 to list all entities receiving state funds along with the name and location of the entity and the amount of all state funds received. The database would be updated every 30 days. Even though the database was supposed to be enacted in the beginning of 2008, Pawlenty has not produced a website.
