The deal stretches tax cuts and spending over three years
Minnesota's top political leaders have struck the framework of a deal to cut $4 billion in taxes and spend an equal amount on things such as classrooms, public safety and health care.
They're also planning to leave $4 billion unspent to prepare for any potential economic downturn.
That's a lot of money, and the roughly $12 billion deal doesn't include an agreement lawmakers already struck earlier this year to replenish the state's unemployment insurance trust fund and send checks to frontline workers.
