Budget for One Minnesota: Community Prosperity
1 Apr 2019
Prosperity and opportunity for all people in all parts of our state stems from the well-being of their community.
Governor Tim Walz’s budget ensures that communities are thriving – not just surviving. His budget expands access to affordable childcare and housing, invests in infrastructure and broadband internet, and gives local leaders the tools they need to succeed.
In total, the Budget for One Minnesota represents an investment of $432 million in community prosperity investments over the next two years, with an additional $1.9 billion in transportation and infrastructure.
