A state agency activated a website last week that will contain information for Minnesota's citizens, state employees and others if no budget agreement is reached and a government shutdown is triggered on July 1.

The site -- www.bereadymn.com -- was set up by the state's Department of Management and Budget. At this point, it contains mostly frequently-asked questions, but will be updated as needed with fresh information during the shutdown.
