Hello from the State Capitol,

?

Lawmakers have returned to St. Paul for the start of the 2024 legislative session, and I expect a number of topics to be addressed.

?

I would prefer a session that focuses on common sense problems and avoids craziness. Thanks to Democrat mismanagement, we?re on the brink of a fiscal mess. They blew through a $20 billion budget surplus and a $10 billion tax increase and expected incoming revenue to keep pace, and now we have a budget deficit projected next year. Democrats should take a step back and try to right this wrong, but I won?t hold my breath.

?

My personal priorities for this session include lowering taxes and helping the middle class and rural employers try to survive the Biden/Walz economy. I also believe Democrats should address the insane expense they approved last session that will spend $730 million on a new state office building.

?

No lawmaker needs a nearly billion dollar building in order to meet with constituents. This is a complete waste of taxpayer dollars, and the Democrats should be looking at ways to trim these costs and make this new building much more cost-effective. ?

?

So what topics may come up this year? I think the DFL majority will try to pursue another bonding bill, as well as attempt to make Minnesota a sanctuary state, continue the prioritization of criminals over crime victims and police, and try to make assisted suicide legal in our state.

?

As session moves forward, please contact me with any legislative questions or concerns. I can be reached at [email protected] or 651-296-5373.

?

Have a great weekend,

?

Marj
