Minnesota has $3.7B surplus; officials warn against overspending

(St. Paul, MN)  --  Minnesota leaders say the economic forecast shows the state has a three-point-seven billion dollar surplus.  

The amount is a one-point-three billion dollar improvement from projections released last December.  

While the current state budget is stable, the February economic forecast released today warned that state spending could exceed revenues in the future.  

The money gives lawmakers more to work with during the 2024 Legislative session.
