Statement from Rep. Dale Lueck re: economic forecast

Tuesday, February 28, 2017

 

ST. PAUL – Minnesota Management & Budget on Tuesday issued an updated state economic forecast and it projects a $1.65 billion surplus through the 2018-19 biennium – an increase of about $250 million over the previous full forecast issued in December. Below is a statement from Rep. Dale Lueck, R-Aitkin, in response.

“It is good to see the policies and budget we enacted in the last biennium continue to produce positive results,” Lueck said. “The growth on our bottom line will be helpful as we look to shape a responsible new budget that supports priorities such as tax relief, roads and bridges, education and senior care.”
