Signs went up at the Minnesota state Capitol building and the State Office Building letting everyone know the buildings were closed. Legislative staff are deemed essential and we are able to get in the building with our keycard. Capitol security is at the only access door making sure that only authorized people get in. For the first time since I have worked at the Capitol, no cars are parked in front of the building. One lone protester is walking back and forth on the Capitol steps. Very, very quiet. Last night I dreamed that someone through a rock through our office window. Reading the news accounts of the massive layoff, I sense anger building.
