North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum delivered a budget proposal to the Legislative Assembly that invest in roads and bridges, workforce development, and tax relief. Bergum said the state is doing incredibly well. “We are blessed as a state compared to virtually every other state, but when our state is doing well, the citizens should also share in that prosperity,” said Burgum. “Our budget includes income tax relief that will eliminate the state individual income tax for three out of five taxpayers. Those who will still pay income tax will see their liability reduced by roughly a quarter to a half.” The 2023-2025 budget proposal includes an unprecedented investment of $2.4 billion in roads, bridges, and other infrastructure. Burgum also said state revenues are strong enough that it should not be drawing profits from the state owned-mill and bank.
