New North Dakota tax forecast estimates $47M revenue growth

North Dakota’s expected tax collections have grown almost $47 million in only three months, but lawmakers said Monday they do not expect the increase will influence the final shape of the state government’s next two-year budget.

"I would say it probably doesn’t change anything with what we’re trying to do at all," said Rep. Jeff Delzer, R-Underwood, the chairman of the North Dakota House’s Appropriations Committee. "It’s a pretty small number for what we have."
