Best sellers!

The Legislative Reference Library's most popular books and reports rarely have much in common with the New York Times bestsellers list. Four recently-arrived Minnesota tax reports will NEVER make that list--but they are very popular at the Library!

Minnesota Tax Handbook A Profile of State and Local Taxes in Minnesota (January 2017) The pocket-sized Handbook provides a profile of each state and local tax, the statutory authority, annual revenue totals by tax type, and a history of the major changes for each tax by year. The Minnesota Department of Revenue has published the Handbook biennially since 1980.

Minnesota Tax Incidence Study: An Analysis of Minnesota's Household and Business Taxes (March 2017) This study addresses the important question, "Who pays Minnesota’s state and local taxes?" The report also estimates tax incidence across income groups for Minnesota state and local taxes looking forward. Published biennially by the Minnesota Department of Revenue since 1991.

Major State Aids and Taxes: A Comparative Analysis (March 2017) House Research has published this comprehensive analysis annually since 1982. House Research also publishes a brief overview of the report

Residential Homestead Property Tax Burden Report: Taxes Payable 2015 (December 2016) The Revenue Department's "Voss report" has been published regularly since 2007. This report links property tax and income data to assess the property tax burden on homestead property.

The reports above are available at the Legislative Reference Library. Contact a librarian at 651-296-8338 or refdesk@lrl.leg.mn if you'd like to check out any of these publications.
