The Minnesota Legislature will gavel into session on March 8. As always, Greater Mankato Growth (GMG) will keep our members up to speed on key issues and provide the information you'll need to be an advocate for your business. Be sure to stay tuned to this blog next week for a post that will review the upcoming session and preview key issues businesses should keep an eye on.GMG's board of directors has also approved a set of policy priorities that our organization will pursue in the 2016 session. I've highlighted our top priorities, including Highway 14 expansion and extension of the local 1/2% sales tax below. GMG's priorities are also supportive of the policy positions of the شراكة مينيسوتا الكبرى (which include broadband expansion and workforce housing, among others). And for the first time, GMG endorsed the Minnesota Chamber's policy priorities as a federation partner. This year the Chamber is focused on reducing the statewide business property tax and securing a long-term transportation finance bill. You can check out GMG's full slate of policy priorities هنا. Further, if you'd like additional background on our policy process, check out our advocacy flow chart. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions ([email protected] / 507-385-6657)
