St. Paul, Minn. — Margaret Anderson Kelliher, Mark Dayton and Matt Entenza all agree taxes should be raised, but they recently started arguing over the scope and the amount of those tax increases.
Mark Dayton has been campaigning for months on a "tax the rich" message. Lately, he's been adding new details to the proposal to increase the income tax rate for wealthy Minnesotans. During a recent gubernatorial forum in St. Paul, Dayton declared that he was the only DFL candidate willing to raise $5 billion through tax increases and tax compliance.
