Stand Up For A Fair Budget

Join with the Invest in Minnesota coalition and other JRLC folks to say that when it comes to crafting budgets that protect the poor and vulnerable, revenues should be part of the solution!
The time is now to stand together and support a balanced approach for fixing Minnesota's budget problems.
