The MEA News is the official publication of the Minnesota Electrical Association.

On both the state and federal levels, MEA News makes readers aware of the many changes and trends taking place that might affect the success of their businesses.

The Quick Resource Guide is published as an insert in the May and November MEA News as an advertising vehicle with a complete listing of MEA’s product/service members and advertisers. This handy resource is distributed to over 3,000 electrical contractors and industry leaders.
