General State Budget

Jan.11, 2009 in General State Budget 84 Comments

Readers suggested that we create a space for people to propose budget ideas that do not neatly fit into one of the existing budget categories.  This area can be a space for you to think creatively about budget ideas that impact more than one traditional budget area. 

 

If, however, you have a list of ideas that would fit within the other budget articles, your ideas would have more impact if you made multiple entries in multiple categories.  Each of the other budget articles in this website relate directly to a Senate Budget Division committee, and the ideas posted in those articles are specifically brought to the attention of the Senators who serve on those committees.

 

Feel free to reference research you have read or similar ideas being enacted in other states.  These citations will help the committees prepare effective legislation.

 

Thank you for your ideas!

Welcome

The Minnesota Senate wants to hear from you. This web site is designed to gather ideas to solve the state's budget crisis from as many Minnesotans as possible. We welcome all suggestions, large or small. Your ideas will help shape the Senate's spending decisions and your creativity could spark innovative solutions.
