State faces stark financial future
Minnesota now faces a stark financial future. Less than two years ago, the state boasted a $19 billion surplus – an unprecedented over-collection of Minnesotans’ tax dollars, but also an unprecedented opportunity to give you real, significant relief by giving it all back. Instead, the Democrats used their total control of government to blow through the surplus and raise $10 billion in taxes. The result: Minnesotans are now staring a $5.1 billion deficit just around the corner.
