Joint Statement:



WASHINGTON — U.S. Reps. Tom Emmer (MN-6), Brad Finstad (MN-1), Michelle
Fischbach (MN-7), andPete Stauber (MN-8) issued the following statement today
in reaction to the state legislative session that ended this week in St. Paul:



“In just five months, the unchecked Democrat Party has wreaked unprecedented
havoc on Minnesotans and our future. For weeks, fellow Members of Congress from
across the country have been asking us what is wrong with the lawmakers in St.
Paul. Like us, they are shocked at how the Democrat-controlled legislature in a
few short months recklessly blew an $18 billion surplus on a partisan,
special-interest spending spree. When that wasn't enough to satisfy them, they
passed $10 billion in tax increases on the same hardworking Minnesotans who
were overtaxed in the first place. Remember the $2,000 rebate checks the
Democrats promised during the campaign last fall? Many Minnesotans who pay
taxes won’t even receive a penny back, while some will receive $260 at most,
much of which will go right back to St. Paul in new delivery, sales, and gas
taxes. Governor Walz and the Democrat-controlled legislature duped Minnesotans.



"Their overreach didn't end with reckless spending. They pursued a litany of
other extreme agenda items from new attacks on our 2nd Amendment rights, to
drivers licenses for illegal immigrants, to California Green New Deal measures
and everything in between. And, of course, with all that spending the only
thing they decided to cut was funding for pregnancy care centers for women
wanting an alternative to abortion. From the Range to the Red River to
Rochester and Rockville, average Minnesotans will remember the Democrats’
broken promises and extreme anti-police, anti-freedom, and anti-common sense
policies that are anything but ‘One Minnesota.’ ”
