St. Paul, MN - Today, Minnesota Management and Budget unveiled a new economic forecast, confirming the policies of the Trump Administration are moving Minnesota’s economy and state budget in the wrong direction.
State Representative Dan Wolgamott (DFL - St. Cloud) released the following statement:
“The DFL trifecta left our state in strong economic standing with a $3.7 billion surplus, record-high $3.5 billion budget reserve, and perfect credit rating, but Trump’s careless chaos is jacking up prices for Minnesotans and wreaking havoc on our state’s financial stability.
“I’m working for a state budget that delivers results for St. Cloud and makes Minnesota an attractive place to live, work, and raise a family - but it will require our Republican partners at the state and federal level to stand up to Trump’s scheme to rig our economy for the benefit of billionaires. We need to work together and find bipartisan solutions to lower costs for Minnesotans.”
