A House Member is recovering from car accident
House member resting after vehicle incident Published (4/24/2009)
Rep. Jean Wagenius (DFL-Mpls) was on her way home after a late-night House floor session, when her vehicle was struck from behind after turning south from Interstate 94 onto southbound Interstate 35W at 1:46 a.m., according to a State Patrol incident report.
A 21-year-old male from Eden Prairie was arrested and booked on suspicion of driving while intoxicated, according to the report.
“We are keeping her in our prayers,” House Speaker Margaret Anderson Kelliher (DFL-Mpls) said during a media briefing.
Wagenius’ husband arrived at the scene and took her to a hospital for evaluation, Kelliher said.
Wagenius was first elected as a representative in 1986 and is the current chairwoman of the House Environment and Natural Resources Finance Division. She represents District 62B in Minneapolis.
The accident raised concerns about late-night sessions. Kelliher said she “always worries” about sessions that end at bar-closing time and members having to drive home.

Scolding and twittering during marthon session
Rep. Tara Mack was scolded by Speaker Margeret Anderson Kelliher (MAK) because Mack passed out unapproved flyer. I had to ask a House member what it was but he said there was too many flyers passed around. Can't remember what flyer it was. It happened yesterday.
During overnight Some of Minnesota Legislative junkies and I even some members of House twittered to each other on progress of session that ended at 1:15AM this morning. What a crazy day it was.
It looked like today was scold-free day at the Capitol. Who's gonna get a scold from the Speaker next?
I have never heard of Senate President Jim Metzen scolding anyone in my lifetime.
