Gov. Tim Walz is pitching his first budget under the new Trump era as a counterweight to the incoming president’s threats to impose tariffs, which he says will raise costs on everyday Minnesotans. His plan would lower Minnesota’s sales tax rate for the first time in state history by 0.

House and Senate Republicans balked at Walz’s recommendations and signaled they would resist any new taxes or fees.

Walz wants to shift the tax burden to wealthier Minnesotans, but Republican House leaders say any increases are off the table.
