On At Issue this morning, Majority Leader Winkler said $12 billion in Democrat tax increases is “not an accurate number, it’s an exaggeration”
Let’s do the math, shall we?
???????????? Democrats want to raise $2.5 billion in health care taxes.
⛽️????????Democrats want $3.8 billion in transportation taxes: $1.7 billion by raising the gas tax by 70%, $1.1 billion in vehicle registration tax hikes, and $1 billion light rail tax hike
???? Democrats want to add a $2 billion tax to your paychecks to pay for a new government Paid Leave program that requires more than 400 new state employees.
???? And finally, Democrats have $4 billion in tax hikes just in their tax bill, hitting Minnesota families of all income levels and businesses of all sizes.
The facts are clear: Democrats forced a special session, and are risking a government shutdown because they are demanding $12 billion in tax increases.
