State Auditor Julie Blaha Joins National Financial Leaders to Urge Senate Rejection of Harmful GOP Budget - For May 22, 2025
State financial leaders warn that the U.S. House GOP’s budget will gut essential programs, shift massive costs to states, and deepen the economic burden on working families.
SAINT PAUL, Minn. — State Auditor Julie Blaha will join Americans for Responsible Growth on a press call TODAY, May 22 at 12 p.m. CST, to condemn the U.S. House GOP’s budget and urge the U.S. Senate to reject the harmful proposal now under consideration.
