The Honorable Steve Sviggum
Speaker of the House of
Representatives
The State of Minnesota
Dear Speaker Sviggum:
I am writing to inform you that I have vetoed Chapter No. 88,
H. F. No. 2461, a bill related to transportation funding.
Legislators have known for many months this legislation would
be vetoed. I am disappointed the
legislature spent so much time advancing this bill simply to make a political
point. It seems time would be better
spent on matters which actually have a chance of being accomplished. I am vetoing this bill for numerous reasons.
First, this legislation would significantly increase state tax
burdens for Minnesota citizens. The
bill increased the state gasoline tax by 10 cents per gallon, which is a 50%
increase. At a time when gasoline
prices are at an historic high, it is particularly unwise to be increasing the
gas tax burden on Minnesota families.
Notwithstanding these concerns, I have repeatedly expressed an openness
to placing the issue of a gas tax increase before the voters as a compromise
with legislators who seek a gas tax increase.
That offer unfortunately has been ignored.
Second, continuing a troubling recent pattern, the bill also
contains dramatic flaws and errors which justify a veto by themselves. This legislation eliminates any transfer of
Motor Vehicle Sales Tax revenues from the state's general fund to
transportation purposes during the FY 2006-07 biennium. Such transfers have been a significant
component of our commitment to the state's transportation system since
2000. This action would cause our
transportation system to lose approximately $600 million in revenues.
Third, the provisions found in Article 3, Sec. 6, subd.1(i)(1)
& (2) are likely unconstitutional.
Revenues deposited in the state's Highway User Tax Distribution Fund are
constitutionally dedicated for road and highway purposes. This bill routes some of those monies to the
general fund for other non-highway purposes.
Fourth, the provision found in Article 3, Sec. 5, which would
dedicate a portion of the existing state sales tax to transit systems, is objectionable.
This provision is inconsistent with the state budget I have proposed for
the 2006-07 biennium.
Fifth, the bill provides disproportionate increases to transit
which are not properly balanced against funding needs for roads.
On a more positive note, the legislation
contains a cornerstone of my transportation proposal - a constitutional
amendment to dedicate 100% of the proceeds of the Motor Vehicle Sales Tax to
transportation needs, phased-in over a five year period. This provision will go forward
notwithstanding my veto because constitutional amendments are not subject to
veto. I thank the legislature for
passing this key part of our plan.
That dedicated funding source created by the constitutional
amendment will provide an additional $615 million per biennium for
transportation when it is fully implemented.
It will help meet long-term needs for state highways and local roads,
and would provide the first-ever constitutionally dedicated revenue stream for
metro and Greater Minnesota transit.
I also am encouraged that the legislation includes $1 billion
in state trunk highway bonds, though I believe a significantly larger trunk
highway bonding package is both warranted and necessary to make measurable
progress in reducing the backlog of unfunded, critical state highway
improvement projects.
My administration has proposed a significant, reasonable and
responsible transportation financing package that would provide state highways,
local governments and transit more than $7 billion in transportation spending -
without raising taxes. I urge the
Legislature to renew efforts to pass my administration's plan during the 2005
legislative session so we can move forward with the job of improving
Minnesota's transportation system.
Sincerely,
Tim Pawlenty
Governor
