    about a possible

    TOP 5toTHINGS you deserve know : government shutdown 2 1


    THE
    Only Governor Dayton can prevent a shutdown.
    He is the only one with the power to call a special session, allowing the Legislature to get back to work. So far, hes refused.

    Governor Dayton claims that his tax increase will only affect the Top 2%.

    But in fact, a DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE study shows that his tax increase proposal will impact ALL INCOME EARNERS in the State of Minnesota.

    According to the most recent budget poll released on June 20th

    87% of Minnesotans want state


    spending to decrease or stay the same.

    While, only

    8% support

    The Legislature completed their work & passed a balanced, responsible budget 6 weeks early

    an increase in state spending.

    And made it publicly available for the Governor, his administration, DFL legislators and the citizens of Minnesota for review.

    Republicans have made serious & honest compromises


    to Governor Dayton on the budget, including:

    *Offering the Governor 100% of his funding requests for Education. *Giving up $200 million in tax relief originally included in our budget offer.

    Honorable Mention

    On the campaign trail, Governor Dayton pledged NOT to shut

    government down

    but on July 1st, he will.
