Red Republican states STOP voting against your own self interests, get representatives who stand up for YOU like Waltz does.
Tim Walz’s 2 year budget outline
“REDUCING the state portion of the sales tax from 6.875% to 6.8%, the state would receive $95 million less a year in a state budget that spends about $33 billion a year. Walz called it historic and a response to concerns about inflation. The DFL governor also said it would be a buffer against any Trump Administration tariffs on some imported goods that could lead to increased consumer prices.”
”But the same plan would further a DFL policy pillar that the wealthy don’t pay their fair share of taxes despite national assessments that Minnesota’s tax system is among the most progressive, meaning those able to pay more are taxed at higher rates. In addition, many lower-income residents pay no income tax and benefit from generous refundable tax credits. Walz proposes collecting the state sales tax on a set of services not currently taxed that way — financial services, stock brokers, banking and accounting.”
Basically he is going to be taxing the people who make more not less this is the exact opposite of what Trump and Republicans are doing at the federal level.
I am going to be sharing this with my state representatives, feel free to do the same.
Maybe we can offset the nightmare of the federal republicans are inflicting upon us.
