HOUSE REPUBLICAN LEADER DAUDT STATEMENT ON PASSAGE OF DEMOCRATS’ EXCHANGE
St. Paul- The Minnesota House of Representatives voted Monday to pass the Minnesota Democrats’ Insurance Exchange (House File 5). House Republican Leader Kurt Daudt (Crown) gave the following statement in response to its passage.
“Tonight, Democrats voted overwhelmingly in favor of a tax increase on middle class Minnesotans and job creators. This is the DFL's first tax increase of this session and I fear it’s the first of many. Not only does this bill increase costs for Minnesotans, it limits their choices in health insurance coverage and fails to protect private patient data. Earlier today, Governor Dayton called the Democrats’ Insurance Exchange ‘a big gamble.’ The Governor is right, their bill is a gamble, a gamble we can’t afford to take with taxpayer dollars and Minnesotans’ health.”
