Bill to form Minpesolos Territory into a State

A long draft bill from the Committee on Territories proposes to allow the people of the Territory of Minpesolos to draft a constitution and state government for admission to the Union on equal footing with existing states. It outlines boundaries from the Red River to Lake Superior, a convention to draft a constitution, and populational representation, with provisions for funding education and public works, and preliminary steps for immediate admission if ratified. No action has yet been taken on the bill.
