MN Sen. Johnson On State Budget Surplus

May 9, 2023 News -- KRJB-KRJM-KKCQ 0

The State of Minnesota has a surplus of over $17 million.  How to use that surplus is a big question in this year’s Legislative session.  It’s been suggested that the surplus should be given back to taxpayers.  But Minnesota Senate Minority Leader Mark Johnson says Democrats in the majority aren’t thinking that way.

House and Senate committees are working out differences in bills passed by both chambers so that a final version can go to Governor Walz for his signature.
