Tax Day 2023: They’re Only Getting Higher

Written By Allison Housley

On Tax Day 2023, we wish we could bring you better news, but the reality is that Minnesota Democrats are raising taxes by more than $2 billion – even with a record-breaking $19 billion budget surplus. Here’s a look at their many tax hike proposals:

  • New fifth-tier income tax

  • Fee increase on fishing permits

  • 60% Increase on new car tab fees

  • Local sales taxes

  • $0.75 food delivery fee

  • $0.75 Amazon fee

  • Gov. Walz’s Twin Cities Metro sales tax

  • The DFL’s Twin Cities Metro sales tax

  • Payroll tax increase to fund Paid Family Leave

As you can see, Democrats are taxing left and right, choosing to grow government instead of helping Minnesotans struggling in this stressful economic climate. The DFL’s main priority this legislative session is taking more money from our wallets.
