Active case counts trending at lowest point since August
| March 4, 2022 Gov. Tim Walz took formal action today related to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The Minnesota governor signed an executive order that condemns the invasion and offers support to the people of Ukraine, specifically his order requires state agencies to terminate any existing contracts with Russian entities and refrain from entering future contracts. The order also encourages companies and organizations to do the same.
Walz said Minnesota stands firmly with Ukraine and said the order helps ensure that the state doesn’t aid the Russian government’s aggression. But, the governor also urged Minnesotans to support Russians living here, saying many are horrified by the aggression toward Ukraine.
