Has anyone heard about the Minneapolis Paid Leave? I’ve been trying to figure out how that would apply to a big law firm who has offices throughout different states. Would they offer the same amount (20 weeks) to all employees?

I think this is a question that you can answer by reviewing your firm's employee handbook and by talking to HR.

As a lawyer, I'm sure you're already aware that a state's laws governing maternity leave only apply to employees in that state. An employee in Missouri can't demand that their employer adhere to New York's maternity leave laws if they feel that those laws fit their needs better. But state and federal law is supposed to set the bare minimum for how an employee is to be treated. An employer can always choose to be more generous.

I’m actually worried this will reduce my paid leave from my firm but we shall see

How so?
