The Taxpayers Legaue of Minnesota
A non-partisan, non-profit grassroots taxpayer advocacy organization for Minnesota


The case against raising taxes
Thanks to the Minnesota Business Partnership understanding the case against raising taxes has never been easier. In "Why Not Raise Minnesota's Statewide Property Tax?" and "Why Not Raise Minnesota's Personal Income Taxes?," the Business Partnership makes the case that our current levels of taxation are more than adequate to fund our state's priorities. Each of the two-page flyers are easily formatted for printing and perfect for mailing to state legislators who may not understand that onerous taxation will only drive jobs and resources to other states.
Join the Taxpayers League and AM1280 for a "2008 End of Session Party"
The end of the 2008 Legislative Session is fast approaching. And when it finally gets here, join the Taxpayers League of Minnesota and AM1280 The Patriot as we breathe a collective sigh of relief and celebrate the passing of another year of fiscal malfeasance. The festivities kick off at 5:30 pm on Tuesday, May 27th at the Metropolitan Club in Golden Valley (394 & 100), and include a run-down of the 2008 session from a handful of taxpayer-friendly legislators. For more information click here.

Rankings for Minnesota's Congressional DelegationAs we have for the past 11 years, the Taxpayers League of Minnesota will again in 2008 publish our annual Legislative Scorcard. This year, however, we will not be rating members of Minnesota's Congressional delegation. But just because the Taxpayers League won't be including ratings for our federal delegation doesn't mean that their record on tax and spending issues isn't important. So to help fill the gap below you'll find links to a number of groups that rate not just Minnesota's representatives, but every member of Congress. The American Conservative Union lists itself as the definitive conservative rating listed in all the major political almanacs and reference guides. The Club for Growth conducts a comprehensive examination of each lawmaker's record on pro-growth policies and computes an Economic Growth Score on a scale of 0 to 100 The National Taxpayers Union rates every U.S. Representative and Senator on their actual votes - and uses every vote that affects taxes, spending, and debt. |
