Governor Dayton's budget and tax proposals threaten Minnesota's economy and your business.
- Huge increases in spending, huge increases in taxes and little reform in either.
- End result will harm the Minnesota economy, competitiveness and jobs.
- There are other ways to solve the problem.
The business to business sales tax base expansion (legal, accounting, computer services, consulting, advertising, etc.) raises business taxes by $2.1 billion in the next biennium alone.
The new 4th tier on the personal income tax increases the top rate from 7.85% to 9.85% for taxable incomes greater than $250,000 married joint, and $150,000 single, raising $1.1 billion in the next biennium.
Spending reform is absent from the proposal. State budget reforms must focus on outcomes and priorities. Lawmakers need to become serious about spending reforms to position Minnesota for economic success.
Please contact the Governor, legislative leaders and your legislators immediately. Share the impact of this historic tax increase on your business and your employees.
