Minnesota House and Minnesota Senate committees are finalizing their separate budget proposals -- and the differences are stark.

The House Majority proposed investing just over $97 million into building a resilient, multi-generational, multi-racial farm and food system, which is just about 1% of the state's historic surplus.

The Senate Majority, however, proposed investing just $5 million into agriculture -- .05% of the state's historic surplus -- so they can use the bulk of their budget for tax cuts that heavily favor the wealthy few. As the data-focused Reformer article pointed out, "At the cost of funding our collective futures, [Senate] tax cuts will return paltry sums mostly to higher-income Minnesotans."

Will you take just two minutes to urge your Senator and the Senate Majority Leader to not miss this opportunity to deliver for farmers, rural Minnesotans, and the working class?
