ST. PAUL, Minn. – The career of Gene Pelowski in the Minnesota House – 38 years – has left a “remrkable legacy,” said House Speaker Melissa Hortman on learning he won’t seek another term. Hortman cited Pelowski, a Winona Democrat, for leading historic investments in higher education. She also praised him for policy work on disaster preparedness and legislative reform. When the Legsislature convened Thursday, it was start of Pelowski’s finale session.
