Democrats Growing Government to “Historic Size”
Minnesota’s government is bigger than ever before and has more of your money than ever before. Emboldened Democrats went off the rails this session and enacted pretty much everything on their radical agenda, effectively changing Minnesota’s course in history.
The Democrats’ radical agenda comes with a price and it’s a hefty one. Government spending is increasing by over $20 billion in the next biennium. The previous budget passed in 2021 totaled $52 billion. The new budget? $72 billion. Yes, a whopping 40% increase in spending is what their agenda costs. Did your budget increase by 40% this year?
Where are Democrats getting all of that money? From hard-working Minnesotans like you. This session they are raising taxes by over $9.5 billion [insert Tuesday blog link]. “We seem to have an insatiable appetite for raising taxes” is what Senator Ann Rest had to say about her own party.
We wish we had a better outlook, but the DFL is taking this state in a direction of despair and destruction. We hope that they spend some of their summer vacation coming to their senses.
