We're live in Duluth this morning, at the WSCN studios. It's a special broadcast looking at the people and places of this area. Well, of course, politics is always an area of interest in the Twin Ports. People keep a close ear on what's happening in St. Paul. It's the second week of Session 2002, and the state's budget remains on center stage at the Capitol, where legislators got off to a flying start a week ago. Lawmakers have to close a projected nearly 2-billion dollar budget shortfall, and Governor Jesse Ventura has urged them to act quickly. Joining us on the line is Minnesota Public Radio's capitol bureau chief Laura McCallum.
