“It’s time to rebuild our community and that starts with safety in our streets,” said Governor Walz.

This is an important step to ensure safety, so we can begin to rebuild and seek justice for George Floyd.”

During the curfew, no one may travel on Minneapolis and Saint Paul streets or public places, except for first responders, members of the media, people going back and forth to work, individuals seeking emergency care or fleeing danger, and people experiencing homelessness.

Curfews are not limited to Minneapolis and St. Paul, mayors across the state can issue their own curfews.

The MACC will serve as a unified command of several different law enforcement and public safety agencies to support the state’s response.
