Gov. Tim Walz said he would sign a sports betting bill into law if it were to reach his desk this session — as long as it doesn't infringe on compacts the state has made with tribes. And state health officials have identified two cases of measles. Both cases are in very young children in the Twin Cities who had been overseas. The Minnesota Department of Health is working to contact anyone who was exposed.

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