We've had less salt on roadways this winter because there's been little ice to melt. But more Minnesota communities hope to curb salt use, even when the weather is harsh. Also, we hear from the new GOP U.S. Senate candidate Joe Fraser.

This is an MPR News morning update, hosted by Phil Picardi. Music by Gary Meister.
