Statement of Senate Majority Leader Paul Gazelka regarding tax conformity

Today, the Minnesota Senate passed a compromise tax conformity bill off the Senate floor, which will now head to the governor’s desk. Senate Majority Leader Paul Gazelka released the following statement:

“The Legislature did its job today and passed a good tax bill to make tax filing simpler, cut taxes for middle-income Minnesotans, and keep our economy humming. I hoped the governor would be willing to find middle ground to get this done, but if not, January is not too late to pass tax conformity in time for next year’s tax filing season.”
