Minnesota Governor Mark Dayton rails against Republicans for their proposal that would link extending unemployment benefits for people who have been laid off on the iron range to a tax cut for businesses. Dayton said Republicans promised that a 26 week unemployment benefit extension would be the first thing they would work on. “And it ought to be a clean bill” . On the GOP plan to tie 29 million dollars in unemployment benefits to $300 million in tax cuts for businesses he said “I think that’s immoral.”
