Department of Finance  


"The Department of Finance has a responsibility to taxpayers to maximize the value of every state dollar. Finance provides accurate and transparent information about the Minnesota and U.S. economies to the public and lawmakers, provides analysis of key issues that may influence or change the state's financial position, and moderates vigorous public debate about the delivery of state services and resources needed over the long-term. Finance also manages the state's $55 billion budget through our accounting and procurement systems. It is my honor to represent such a respected institution for the State of Minnesota."
