By Joe Sheeran, Communications Director, July 3, 2012 at 1:30 pm

In June, Minnesota 2020 added a cartographer, Zack Avre, our Summer 2012 Macalester College Chuck Green Fellow.  He's been hard at work mapping Minnesota, documenting a range of issues from foreclosures to energy generation to rural medical needs. Here are some of his top stories for the month.

June also brought national stories with serious policy implications for Minnesota, including Walker's recall election and the Supreme Court upholding the Affordable Care Act. Check out Hindsight's best of June.
