Nearly 12,000 “Minnesotans” have already applied for Paid Leave.
The expensive and very fraud prone program has officially gone live. With nearly 12,000 “Minnesotans” applying for paid leave.
Read the press release below:
St. Paul, MN — Nearly 12,000 Minnesotans have applied for Paid Leave since applications opened, the Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED) announced Friday.
DEED launched the full Paid Leave application this week. Applications for bonding leave for parents who welcomed a child in 2025 went live in early December. Since then, 11,883 Minnesotans have submitted applications as of Friday morning, and DEED has completed reviewing 6,393 leaves.
“Receiving nearly 12,000 early Paid Leave applications shows just how motivated people are to engage with this new program,” said DEED Commissioner Matt Varilek. “Our website is managing traffic well and our contact center team is prepared to answer questions from Minnesotans who need assistance. We’re proud and excited to implement this program for Minnesota.”
Since opening applications for bonding leave in early December, DEED has completed reviewing over half of applications.
Based on projections from an independent actuary, DEED expects about 130,000 approved claims from Minnesotans in the first year of the Paid Leave program.

MNGOP End of Year Gubernatorial Poll
THE DFL MACHINE WON’T PROTECT CHILDREN BUT LOVES GUN CONTROL
Governor Tim Walz DOESNT want a special session on: ending the law that makes it illegal for medical professionals to help depressed and gender confused kids without a gender change. Or on putting a school officer at every school, private and public. Or on canceling “free” lunch for all to pay for fencing and facility safety improvements.
No, Governor Walz wants a special session on Gun Control to ban only ONE of the THREE weapon types the Annunciation school shooter used.
Maybe there won’t be a special session on gun control, but maybe we should have one on why Walz and the Mpls Democrats refuse to help provide children and schools with the same basic safety baseball games, football games, banks and even the State Fair have. We can think of 100 things to cut from the rainbow-green scam budget to pay for basic school safety.
Side Note: They will never give of the rainbow-green scam budget which is why they propose “gun control”. It costs nothing and requires no cuts to their cult budget to implement.
They care about kids exactly $0 worth.

HALF BILLION IN FRAUD AND COUNTING
HALF BILLION IN FRAUD AND COUNTING……….so far.
Walz machine donors have been ripping off the state for years. We all know Feeding Our Future and their affiliated fraud is just the tip of the iceberg. Suitcases of cash from daycare fraud has been taking plane rides to Somalia for over a decade now and nobody does anything.
What about fraud in:
Senior daycare programs?
Summer lunch for kids?
Violence Interrupters?
Home Health Aids and staffing svcs?
Charter schools?
Free food distribution?
Medicaid and Medicare ride reimbursement?
Medicaid and Medicare rehab therapy appts?
Halfway housing?
Legal Aid nonprofits? They actually help anybody? For how much per client/case?
“Social justice” scammers?
Climate resilience and other climate scams?
Nonprofit outdoor organizations claiming to “help” the DNR?
How about MSBA recommending the same construction and bond underwriting vendors for every school district in MN? Who is getting rich off that monopoly and are MSBA members and staff benefitting?
How many state employees operate or own a non profit or LCC and are taking state grant or vendor payments? Does anybody even look?
It’s time to clean up Minnesota, and we can’t wait for 1 US Attorney to do it all for us. We also have a $5 billion deficit to fill and we better start cracking on adding up the fraud with proof, or Walz and the RINO’s will just sales tax everything.
