Dayton, lawmakers battle over tax rebate plan - KSFY News - Sioux Falls, SD News, Weather, Sports

Part of Minnesota Governor Mark Dayton's tax overhaul plan is causing sharp debate in St. Paul. Lawmakers are disagreeing about the best way to give property tax relief to Minnesotans.

Under the Governor's plan, every homeowner would receive a rebate of up to $500.

Republicans accuse Dayton of an election-year ploy.

Democrats say they're not sold on the idea of an across-the-board rebate.

Dayton calls the GOP criticism "crass" and says he's responding to a top tax concern among the public.
