Realizing government does not create jobs but can create a better climate for job growth, Rep. Scott has supported elimination of the statewide business property tax and other taxes and regulations placed our businesses that businesses in other states and countries do not have. Such taxes and regulation put us at a competitive disadvantage.
The recent business to business taxes adopted by the Democrat majorities in the House and Senate and signed into law by Gov. Dayton. are prime examples of placing our businesses as a competitive disadvantage and will cost our state jobs.
We have a hardworking and well-educated workforce and many innovative industries. We must get government out of the way as much as possible to maximize these assets.
