State Aid to Cities Enables Greater Spending on Employee Health Care Benefits
On June 9, the Minnesota Taxpayers Association release their report, "Health Care Spending By Minnesota's Cities - Costs, Efficiencies, and the Role of Local Government Aid."

"It's ironic that a program (Local Government Aid, or LGA) intended to foster greater equity in local government service delivery across the state creates greater inequity among public employees with respect to health care benefits," notes Mark Haveman, Executive Director of the Minnesota Taxpayers Association. "Based on one year of data, LGA is a far greater determinant of differences in health care benefits than any other revenue source."
