Award logoThe Minnesota Legislature's website is a shared work of the House, Senate, and joint offices, including the Library. And we're honored to be recognized by the National Conference of State Legislatures with this year's Online Democracy Award!

The press release reads, 'The Minnesota legislature's website was recognized for its "humongous' amount of content, which is organized and structured in a very user-friendly manner, according to the selection committee. The site designers did a great job focusing on members, bill search and statutes. 'Considering how much information is on it, the website is almost deceptively simple while still being polished—but not overly fancy for fancy’s sake,' the committee said. 'It’s really commendable.'"

Staff from many legislative offices share in the work of maintaining the Legislature's web content. These staff collaborate, contribute content, and regularly consult one another on best practices to make the web experience for legislators, legislative staff, and members of the public as accessible and usable as possible.
