Dear Friends –
This week state economists issued their "February forecast" with the latest revenue projections for the next biennium, FY 2012 - 2013. This will give us a better idea of how much revenue we can expect so that we can set our state budget. In the last forecast, it was estimated that state revenues would increase from approximately $30 billion to $32 billion, or about a 6 percent increase.
The $6.2 billion deficit that you keep hearing about is because expenditures are automatically set to increase about 28 percent. Government should be able to live with 8.8 percent growth, not 29 percent. I stand firm in not giving our Government a $5 billion dollar raise! We have a $1.2 billion dollar improvement without raising taxes. Proof that we don't need Dayton's tax plan!
This weekend I will be joining Senator Ingebrigtsen as we make our way through the district for town hall meetings. I look forward to talking with you about the budget and any other issues you may want to address. I hope that you will join us at our events and I look forward to seeing many of you there!
