2005 Legislative Session: Moving Minnesota Forward?

MCN and the Minnesota Budget Project have analyzed how budget decisions made at the State Legislature in 2005 will impact working families and individuals, children and youth, and populations with unique needs.  Ultimately, the final budget agreement relied on regressive revenue increases to help avoid some of the worst of the proposed reductions.  For many of Minnesota's most vulnerable residents, the 2005 Legislative Session represents some opportunities lost, but also some important steps forward.  (Updated to reflect the final budget agreement.)

Throughout the Legislative Session, the Minnesota Budget Project provides nonprofit advocates with thoughtful analysis of state financial forecasts, various budget proposals, and other legislation.  The Minnesota Budget Project also publishes numerous reports and fact sheets on topics ranging from property taxes to welfare reform to federal initiatives.
