Minnesota’s leading organization providing analysis of the impact of tax and budget decisions on low-income Minnesotans.

The Minnesota Budget Project engages in analysis, research and advocacy for a fair tax system and sound budget decisions. We fight hard and smart so that Minnesota can maintain its high quality of life and build a strong economic future.

The Minnesota Budget Project provides clear, concise information about the consequences for families, communities and businesses of taking an unbalanced approach to Minnesota’s budget choices. A cuts-only approach will result in even tougher times for hard-working Minnesotans and delay our economic recovery.

The Minnesota Budget Project is committed to promoting sound policy decisions and a balanced approach to funding our state’s priorities, including good schools, health care, and services for people with disabilities, to ensure that our communities are healthy, our economy is strong and everyone has an opportunity to succeed.

Your support for the Minnesota Budget Project now will help us to stay in this fight. Your support will give us the flexibility we need to respond quickly in a fast-changing policy environment.
