The Spuddy Times news

Don't let common ballot misconceptions keep you from making an informed vote this election season! 🗳️✨

When voters see school-related constitutional amendments, it’s natural to worry about local property taxes going up. But the Permanent School Fund Amendment works differently.

This measure simply directs returns from Minnesota’s existing state investment accounts straight into public school classrooms across the state. The funds are already collected and waiting—meaning a YES vote delivers vital resources directly to local students without adding a single dime to your property taxes, income taxes, or local tax bills.

It’s an opportunity to maximize the funding already dedicated to our public schools at zero extra cost to Minnesota homeowners and taxpayers.

Got questions about what’s on your ballot? Drop them in the comments below or visit our ISD 152 Permanent School Fund Webpage, and share this post to help spread the facts with fellow Minnesota voters! 📲

PSF Myth vs Fact Voting Yes equals increase in property taxes which is FALSE. It will NOT increase taxes or cost Minnesotans extra money.
A symbol of community and tradition. Proud to be a Spud!
