(Bismarck, ND) — Outgoing Governor Doug Burgum gave his final budget address yesterday, laying out his priorities for the next two years. Burgum is proposing a 95-million dollar package to improve housing, accessibility, affordability and stability. He also wants an additional 54-million dollars to be put towards workforce-related programs to continue to address the state’s workforce shortage. Burgum said all of this is without new taxes and that the state is in a strong financial position.
