Presented by John Gunyou & Jay Kiedrowski

Saturday, January 27, 2007
8 – 10 a.m.

Heintz Center, HB117
(Use the H Entrance Door)
Rochester, Minnesota

You are invited to join fellow community members and elected officials to hear straight talk about Minnesota's financial condition from two former state finance commissioners. Jay Kiedrowski and John Gunyou served in the Perpich and Carlson administrations, respectively, and are widely respected for their non-partisan advice on state tax and budget policy. They'll be addressing how big the projected state budget surplus really is, and how it should be used to position Minnesota for the future.

Following their presentation, there will be an opportunity to further discuss the issue in small groups. Elected officials are invited to attend to listen to your views on this timely and important topic. Enjoy a cup of Dunn Bros coffee and talk to your neighbors about issues that affect us all.
