Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz in his State of the State address on Wednesday called on the divided legislature to work together in the crucial final weeks of the session.

Tim Walz used his seventh State of the State speech to take swings at President Trump while calling on state lawmakers to work together to show that "there's a better way to govern." The big picture: Last night's address to the politically divided Legislature was one of the DFL governor's highest profile speeches since losing his vice presidential bid.

Gov. Tim Walz will deliver his seventh State of the State address Wednesday evening in front of a narrowly divided Minnesota Legislature with weeks left to strike a deal on the state budget. It also comes at a moment when his political future is unclear.
