(ABC 6 News) - With the Delta variant pushing cases up in Minnesota and across the country, Gov. Walz has joined a national effort to limit COVID-19 as students get ready to go back to school.
Between July 30 and Aug. 15 any Minnesotan 12 and older who gets their first COVID-19 shot will get $100.
Governor Walz will authorize up to $2.5 million in American Rescue Plan funding to start up the program, will seek legislative approval for additional funding to sustain the program for its duration, and will work with the State Legislature, foundations, and nonprofits on a public-private partnership to stand up a subsequent grant program to provide Minnesotans, especially those in vulnerable and underserved communities, real-time incentives to get their shot.
