Make Minnesota More Affordable
Minnesota has one of the highest tax rates in the nation both for individuals and employers. In order to truly make Minnesota a great place to live, work, and raise a family we need to lower taxes for employers and employees allowing people to keep more of what they earn. We want small businesses, manufacturers, farmers, and investors to make their home right here in Minnesota we can only do that if we create a climate for them to succeed and hire more Minnesotans.
For too long, Minnesota’s regulatory climate has hampered main street small businesses and farmers. Today, the regulatory authority of Minnesota’s State Agencies is out of control. As your State Representative I will fight to remove the rulemaking authority of our state agencies like the DNR which is crippling our farming community and threatening the agriculture supply chains here in Minnesota. Rulemaking and regulatory authority needs to return to the legislative branch because our farmers know best how to steward the land.
When we reduce and eliminate the tax and regulatory burdens for our small businesses our economy will thrive.
