The Minnesota tax bill passed earlier this month by the Legislature looks to provide a number of breaks for local businesses and people impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, while also clearing the way for a large-scale wood products project in Cohasset.
It didnât cut the muster for the entire Iron Range Delegation, however.
The bill would produce $49.1 billion in revenue in the 2022-23 biennium that started July 1 and provide $4.2 billion in refunds, aids and credits, including $761 million in new tax cuts and credits, and no tax increases previously proposed by Democrats.
Among those include bringing the state tax law into conformity with the federal government on forgiving Paycheck Protection Program loans and unemployment benefits up to $10,200.

ST. PAUL – The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency’s Clean Car Rules may have survived a threatened budget freeze from Senate Republicans, but GOP leaders made it clear that the agency’s commissioner, Laura Bishop, won’t be around to see them implemented.
Bishop is out, resigning on Tuesday after Senate Majority Leader Paul Gazelka informed Gov. Tim Walz that her appointment to the position, made in January 2019, would not be confirmed, even though the confirmation hearing itself had not yet taken place.
The special legislative session called to finalize the state’s budget for the next biennium was expected to end last Friday. However, Senate Republicans voted to remain in session and scheduled confirmation hearings for numerous Walz appointees, including Bishop. The move drew a quick rebuke from Senate Minority Leader Susan Kent, DFL-Woodbury.

The Minnesota State Budget, passed Wednesday morning, included a bill that gives financial support, up to $3 million per year for 10 years, to the Oriented Strand Board manufacturing plant project in Cohasset.
Proponents of the bill say the legislation will help bring hundreds of direct and indirect jobs to the area.
The OSB project was recently approved to receive $15 million in funding from the Iron Range Resources and Rehabilitation Board.
A $439 million dollar OSB plant is planned for Cohasset.
