REP. SELCER DISCUSSES CHANGE IN BUSINESS TAX WITH GOVERNOR
St. Paul, Minnesota — Yesterday, Rep. Yvonne Selcer met with Governor Mark Dayton to discuss the state budget. Governor Dayton announced today that he is dropping business-to-business taxes from his budget proposals and some are saying that he may no longer pursue a sales tax expansion.
“I have been hearing many concerns on the business-to-business tax proposal and I told the Governor that I did not support this revenue source,” said Rep. Selcer. “While we need to solve the budget deficit, we must strike a balance that businesses and consumers can agree on.”
“It is reassuring that Governor Dayton listened to my concerns and dropped the business tax proposal. I expressed additional concerns over other budget proposals, and hope that we will see some of his sales tax proposals changed. I look forward to working with the Governor on a final budget package that sets our state on stable financial footing into the future and boosts economic growth in our community.”
