HF33 appropriates $18.8 billion in health and human services spending for FY 2022-23, resulting in extended Medicaid coverage, hiked payouts under the Minnesota Family Investment Program (MFIP), spending for child care and student loan forgiveness, and “anti-racism” training for health care providers.
The House passed HF33 on June 26, 2021, by a vote of 69 to 56. We have assigned pluses to the nays because neither health care nor social welfare is the object of legitimate government at any level. Increasing government dependency not only causes more debt and poverty in the United States, but continues the irresponsible and unconstitutional use of taxpayer money by disparaging the American people of their right to the income they have earned.
