Tax increase on Minnesota's highest earners renews fair share debate

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz debuted his state budget plan for the next two years during a press conference Tuesday, Jan. 26, 2021 at the Department of Revenue building in St. Paul.
Gov. Tim Walz's proposal to raise taxes on the wealthiest has reinvigorated a debate in Minnesota: Do top earners pay their fair share, or will his plan hamper a fragile economic recovery?
The centerpiece is a new fifth tier income tax bracket on couples making more than $1 million each year, a jump from the fourth tier income tax enacted eight years ago by his predecessor, former Gov. Mark Dayton. The Walz administration says the COVID-19 pandemic hasn't hit those earners as hard as it has lower-income Minnesotans, who would benefit in Walz's plan through direct aid and tax relief.
