2013 SESSION UPDATE


Dear Friends, 

The 88th Legislative Session convened on Tuesday, January 8.  Redistricting and the 2012 election have ushered in 37 new House members.  Having helped with new legislator orientation, I know that we are all eager to work together on fresh solutions to our state’s problems.  I am excited to get to work on the behalf of the Mankato community. 

Economic forecasts revealed early last month that lawmakers must tackle a $1.1 billion budget shortfall this year. When the money still owed to schools and inflation is included the shortfall rises to over $3 billion.

Despite this challenge, I am confident that we can set the right priorities and responsibly balance the budget.  In addition, I look forward to working to grow our middle-class economy, improve education, provide property tax relief and modernize Minnesota’s tax system.

I hope you will contact me with your comments and questions.
As always, it is a privilege and an honor to represent you.

Sincerely, 

Kathy Brynaert 
State Representative
