The Honorable Kurt
Zellers
Speaker of the House
of Representatives
The State of Minnesota
Dear
Speaker Zellers:
����� I have vetoed and am returning H. F. No.
2083, Chapter No. 154, a bill which would raid
the State's budget reserves to buy back part of the remaining school shift.
����� I
fully share the Legislature's desire to repay the debt to school districts as
quickly as possible. For this reason, my budget proposals last year did not
rely on additional borrowing from either our schools or our future (tobacco
bonds).� During this session, I supported
legislation that would repay the school districts with revenues raised from
closing corporate tax loopholes, which allow companies to avoid paying
Minnesota taxes on their foreign operations.�
Unfortunately, the legislative majority decided that protecting large
corporations' tax breaks for operating overseas was more important than paying back our
schools responsibly.
����� Instead,
this bill raids the just-filled budget reserve to pay back the rest of last
year's school shift. Admittedly, this notion has superficial appeal.� After all, there is no ready constituency for
protecting the budget reserve.
����� However,
this action would wrongly perpetuate the terrible legislative practice of the
past decade:� trying to solve an
immediate financial problem by substituting a larger problem, which will not be
visible until later.
����� Last
session added $1.4 billion of debt to the State's balance sheet. It was the
principal reason for the subsequent downgrading of its credit rating, which
increases the cost to the State of borrowing money.� Now the desire to avoid public accountability
for those actions motivates yet another ploy:�
to transfer that fiscal problem from the school districts to the state.
����� Last
session's budget agreement shifted the state's aid payment schedule to school
districts to a 60/40 ratio. After the February forecast, $315 million was
available under current state law to reduce the shift to a 64.3/35.7 schedule.� This bill would transfer $430
million from the state's budget reserves to buy back the rest of last year's
school shift. Doing so would reduce the Reserve Fund by almost two-thirds.� That tactic is superficially appealing.� However, the same people must pay off either
school debt or state debt:� the people of
Minnesota.
����� A more responsible
approach to this situation would have been for the Legislature to have held hearings and considered carefully
whether the existing requirements, under state law, for a $350 million Cash-flow
Account and an additional $653 million Reserve Fund are necessary to assure the State's financial stability, a strong
credit rating, and the prompt payment of statutory obligations. �If the determination were made that those two funds
are more than sufficient, it would then be appropriate to discuss with my administration the best use for the other funds.
����� However,
those careful considerations and discussions did not occur. Media reports about
this legislation uniformly report on its political brilliance in rescuing those
who voted for last year's school shift from
the wrath of the voters. �That, not
fiscal responsibility, was reportedly
the motive for this legislation.
����� As
elected officials, we are responsible for the wise financial management of our state. �Our first priority should be assuring state
government's financial stability. �This bill
would significantly increase that risk. Raiding two-thirds of the Budget
Reserve would reduce our protection against
future volatility. �While $653 million in
reserve seems like a large amount, it
is less than 2% of the State's $34 billion biennial budget. �The
Minnesota Department of Management and Budget (MMB), in its January 2012 Budget Reserve Report to the Legislature, stated
that the State actually needs a Reserve of $1.3 billion, because of our revenue volatility. �Thus, in MMB's judgment, our current reserve
is only one-half of what is needed to manage adequately the inherent risk.
����� Furthermore, MMB
reported in last February's forecast that, with 16 months remaining in the
biennium, we still face a potential variance of $1 billion in the budget through
June 30, 2013. �Raiding the reserve funds
would put the State's newly-achieved fiscal stability at unacceptable risk.
����� Our predecessors
recognized the wisdom in ensuring adequate budget reserves are in place prior
to paying down our other debts. �State
law establishing the budget reserves has
been amended over the years to ensure that fully funding our reserves is our
highest priority, that the reserves are funded prior to other spending
commitments, and that restoring and maintaining the reserves is an
economic necessity, not a budget convenience.
�Actions taken by previous legislatures
have followed this wisdom and recognized that the State
must get its own finances in order before repaying other obligations.� Just getting out of a deep budgetary hole is
no reason to cut corners now.
����� According
to MMB, the budget decisions and accounting shifts over the past decade have
significantly worsened the timing of General Fund cash revenues and spending,
creating serious cash flow problems.�
Using the reserves to advance the shift payments would only make a bad
situation worse and, in MMB's judgment, would likely force the State into
short-term borrowing to pay its bills.� I
cannot support legislation, which could force us into that situation.
������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������� Sincerely,
