Minnesota's legislative session approached its end marked by uncertainty over the fate of proposals for education, public safety and other spending priorities as state leaders appeared to be running out of time to strike agreements.

"We're not interested in a special session," said Senate Majority Leader Jeremy Miller, R-Winona.
