The Ninety-third Minnesota Legislature is the current meeting of the legislative branch of the state of Minnesota, composed of the Minnesota Senate and the Minnesota House of Representatives. It convened in Saint Paul on January 3, 2023.

The first legislature to be fully DFL-controlled since the 88th Minnesota Legislature in 2013-15, the body passed a number of major reforms to Minnesota law, including requiring paid leave, banning noncompete agreements, cannabis legalization, increased spending on infrastructure and environmental issues, tax modifications, codifying abortion rights, universal free school meals, and universal gun background checks among others.[1]

The Star Tribune called the session "one of the most consequential" ever in Minnesota, while Governor Tim Walz stated that it was the "most productive session in Minnesota history."[1] Some journalists compared the session to the 68th Minnesota Legislature, a DFL trifecta from 1973-1975 that enacted major changes to school finance known as the "Minnesota Miracle".[1][2]
