St. Paul – Today, the Minnesota Department of Management and Budget announced that Minnesota has a projected state budget surplus of $7.7 billion for the 2022-23 fiscal years: the largest budget surplus in the history of the state. This represents roughly $2,619 for every income taxpayer in Minnesota, or $3,463 for every family in Minnesota, or $1,365 for every man, woman, and child in Minnesota. At a record pace, Minnesota is taking in far more money than it is spending. The members of the New House Republican Caucus offered their reaction.
