- Higher labor costs and more burdensome regulations from new laws like the $1.5 billion, 20-week per year PFML mandate, the 10-day per year paid sick time mandate, and additional employment regulations;
- Higher taxes and fees, making it more expensive to purchase and register vehicles (MVST and registration fee increases), send and receive retail deliveries (50 cent retail delivery tax), and more expensive to purchase supplies and equipment (1% metro area sales tax increase);
- More expensive healthcare from new insurance mandates and more government interference from a state-controlled public option health plan; and
