St. Paul – State Representative Drew Christensen, R-Savage, released the following statement regarding the $329 million budget surplus that was announced Wednesday.
“Tax reform and a responsible budget have combined with the hard work of Minnesota taxpayers to create a thriving economy in this state,” said Rep. Christensen. “I will continue to work to make sure Minnesotans keep more of their paychecks while keeping the state budget in a healthy state for years to come.”
The $329 million surplus is an over half-billion dollar improvement from the November forecast that predicted a $188 million deficit.
