Town Hall Meetings on the Budget

Voice Your Opinion to the Committee Chairs

In the coming days, members of the Minnesota House of Representatives and Senate will be holding listening sessions across the state to hear from Minnesotans about Governor Pawlenty’s budget recommendations. The schedule of town hall meetings is listed below. Please plan to attend one in your area.

With the steep economic challenges facing our state, your feedback is critical in the process of finding solutions. The governor has proposed his budget without seeking the input of the people it will impact the most — Minnesota’s working families. This is your opportunity to stand up and make sure that this budget is the budget of the people.
