Do you live in Minnesota and have a story about how public services support your family or community? Do you see ways your community isn’t getting the services they need?
Why share? Minnesota policymakers are facing important decisions that affect all of us, including how we invest in the communities we call home and the public services that people rely on every day.
Your story can help state policymakers and others better understand what's at stake, show how public investments strengthen our communities and economy, and highlight why raising tax revenues is a better path than making cuts to public services.
By sharing your experience, you can help build support for the choices Minnesota needs to make to care for our neighbors and create a more stable future.
Thinking back on Invest in Minnesota, we rallied to help people understand the real stories of people impacted by programs that our tax dollars support. We humanized what it means to support people with disabilities so they can live independently, how it pays off to invest in early childhood programming and how we all benefit from safe and strong communities where we live, play, learn and work. In a world of stark income inequality, it’s about everyone paying their fair share, but more importantly it’s about what we’re paying for and why taxpayers should be proud to do so.
