| “ |
I will work to give citizens of the state of Minnesota a better understanding of the financial health of our state. The people must have a better understanding of their money. The information currently given does very little to give 'we the people' something tangible. I believe using an executive office to keep things out of the news is the wrong way to inform the people.
