History

Originally, the Department of Labor was combined with the North Dakota Department of Agriculture and was collectively called the North Dakota Department of Agriculture and Labor until 1966 when the two agencies split. The Agriculture Commissioner's term was then extended from two years to four, and was placed on a party affiliated ballot, while the Commissioner of Labor was placed on a no party ballot.[2] Since 1994, however, the Labor Commissioner has no longer been on the ballot, and is instead appointed by the Governor of North Dakota. In 2013, the department was renamed the Department of Labor and Human Rights to reflect additional responsibilities that the legislature had assigned it in the intervening years, but the name of the position remains simply the Labor Commissioner.[3]

gollark: It's signalum cell frames and other random stuff. No titanium.
gollark: The AR gate quest barely gives you enough titanium and other stuff to, yes.
