Dear Neighbors,
It was another busy week in St. Paul as we wrapped up votes on House Democrats' omnibus supplemental budget bills. A reminder that they are proposing $21 in new spending for every $1 of tax cuts/reductions. This is unacceptable and I will continue pushing to return the budget surplus back to you, the hardworking taxpayers of Minnesota.
Please take a moment to watch the two videos I recorded this week touching on the health and human services (HHS) bill and legislation providing a fix to a problem that was causing tax increases for job providers.

In the video above, I discuss Democrats' health and human services bill and the missed opportunity to help out nursing homes and long-term care facilities. Click here or the photo above.
