Bill > HF2015

This bill proposes to limit the growth of state employment in Minnesota's executive branch agencies by tying it directly to the state's population growth. Specifically, the bill mandates that the percentage increase in full-time equivalent (FTE) positions across executive branch state agencies in a given fiscal year cannot exceed the percentage growth of the state's population during the same period, as projected by the state demographer. The bill explicitly excludes Minnesota State Colleges and Universities from this employment restriction. By implementing this provision, the legislation aims to control government workforce expansion and ensure that state agency staffing levels grow proportionally with the state's population, potentially helping to manage state spending and bureaucratic growth.
