Protect Minnesota's safety-net hospital system: Repurpose the ballpark sales tax
Recent changes to Medicare and Medicaid programs--combined with growing levels of uncompensated care--put Hennepin Healthcare at significant risk of closure, jeopardizing access to care for Minnesotans statewide.
Legislative action is needed to take the 2006 ballpark sales tax that built Target Field and repurpose it to a healthcare sales tax that will provide sustainable funding to stabilize and protect Minnesota's safety net health system. Contact your legislators to urge their support for this proposal.
