An effort to expel embattled DFL Minnesota state Sen. Nicole Mitchell failed in the chamber on Monday. Republican Sen. Jordan Rasmusson of Fergus Falls introduced the motion to expel Mitchell, who last year was charged with burglary.

Republican state representatives are honoring a Minnesota Supreme Court ruling that the House must have 68 members present to conduct business. But Democratic-Farmer-Labor members say they still won’t show up at the Capitol until the sides reach a power-sharing agreement.

It was chaos times two on Monday at the Minnesota Capitol as Senate Republicans tried again to expel DFL Sen. Nicole Mitchell of Woodbury, who has been charged with felony burglary. The House also remains at a stalemate with Democrats continuing their boycott.
