Analysis of the statewide economic impact of increased immigration enforcement in Minnesota funding provided, report required, and money appropriated.
This bill allocates $250,000 from the state's general fund to conduct a study on how increased immigration enforcement affects Minnesota's economy. The analysis, which must be completed by February 1, 2027, will examine the impact on the workforce, small businesses, and key industries such as agriculture, healthcare, and construction. It will also look at regional differences across the state and how enforcement might influence consumer spending and tax revenue. The report will be submitted to legislative leaders overseeing workforce and economic development, with the option to hire an independent third party to prepare the findings.
