Minnesota House Reads Blatz Tax Plan Against Chance of Rejection
The Minnesota House was expected to reject the Senate tax proposal backed by Sen. Jerome Blatz. The Senate approved the plan 51 to 16 and supported a 50 cent per ton taconite tax, with a coalition of DFLers and Conservatives. The bill would fund local property tax relief through state aid to schools and welfare cost transfers, risking a conference committee deadlock or a special session if not enacted.
