Capitol View

Same old Minnesota House

Posted at 12:35 PM on January 11, 2007 by Tom Scheck

The Minnesota House is now in hour three of a "non-controversial" bill that would conform the state tax system to the federal tax changes made late last year. I'm hearing the entire House will vote in favor of this bill BUT....

There are amendments and points of orders and challenges to the points of order. Do you think the GOP Minority is trying to poke a stick at the new DFL majority? Perhaps they want some material for their political leaflets in two years?
