Doug Burgum speaks during a Republican presidential primary debate hosted by FOX Business Network and Univision, Wednesday, Sept. 27, 2023, at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, Calif.
The Republican governor said in a statement that he was “shocked and disappointed” that the agenda set by GOP legislative leaders doesn’t include his tax relief proposal, which would draw from a $288 million surplus in the previous two-year budget.for the session came after the court ruled last week that it won’t delay its surprising Sept. 28 decision thatThe bill, usually the last one passed in the biennial session, is traditionally used as a catchall or cleanup bill.
A top panel of lawmakers decided to limit the agenda for the three- to five-day special session to the items that the Supreme Court voided. The bill contained about $322 million in 2023-25 budget items. North Dakota’s 2021-2023 budget closed June 30 with a balance of nearly $1.5 billion, which was $288 million over an April forecast that was used to set the budget, because of strong revenues and lower-than-budgeted spending by state agencies.
“When government collects more tax revenue than it needs, our first option should always be to return money to the taxpayers,” Burgum said. “This proposed tax relief would allow North Dakota workers and homeowners to keep more of their hard-earned money in their pockets so they can invest it in their families, their communities and themselves.
