As they’ve been crafting our state budget, Kurt Daudt and House and Senate Republicans promised an “open and transparent” process so that we would know exactly what their plans are for a budget that will affect everything from how much we pay for health care to how many teachers are in our kid’s classrooms.
But, last night, while you were sleeping, they agreed to vote on budget bills (with little notice and chance for public input) that benefit wealthy corporations at the expense of hardworking Minnesotans.
Less than 12 hour notice for higher ed CC today. Lasted 6 minutes. $3.19 billion budget passed. This is not what democracy looks like #mnleg pic.twitter.com/UAUgwhbqhV

Kurt Daudt and Republicans have proven once again that they can’t govern or be trusted to do what’s best for Minnesotans.
