Senate Floor Session: Then and Now Photo Source: David Oakes, MN Senate

Imagining in 1976 Library News, Robbie Lfleur (11/29/2012) Sen. George Conzemius, in a column from Senate Perspectives from April/May 1976 (p. 5), "We may also see Computer Terminals at each legislators' floor desk. These television-like screens would allow legislators - at the push of a button to recall (and have displayed before them) the various bills before the legislature. In addition, these terminals could be programmed to allow the insertion of amendments or the recall of documents or transcripts of committee testimony."

MN House-Then (1976) Senate Perspectives April/May 1976April/May 1976

MN House Now(2013) Pioneer Press, “Minnesota Legislature: Real-time view via technology” January 6, 2013.
