Minnesota HF2919 amends grants management provisions, including agency authority to withhold grants and reporting of violations.

Minnesota HF2919 amends grants management provisions by allowing agencies to withhold grants if there is a substantial risk that the grantee cannot perform required duties. The agency must consider additional information from the grantee and notify them of the decision. If the grantee contests the decision, the agency has 15 business days to reconsider. The bill also requires state employees to report violations of grant laws or rules, with protections against discrimination for good faith reports. The legislative auditor must report on multiple complaints about the same agency.
