An error in the tax bill approved by the Legislature in May will have lawmakers scrambling next year to avoid Minnesotans having to pay higher income taxes.Minnesota Revenue Commissioner Paul Marquart and House and Senate tax committee chairs Sen. Ann Rest, DFL-New Hope, and Rep. Aisha Gomez, DFL-Minneapolis, acknowledged the error in a statement Friday. The statement also said they had an agreement to fix it when the Legislature reconvenes in February 2024.If lawmakers fix the error next year it shouldn’t impact what taxpayers owe, the statement said.

Earlier this offseason, Sean Payton likened his offensive line room to an episode of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.The Broncos spent big on the renovation.They gutted the interior and spent $52.5 million to bring in guard Ben Powers. They reimagined the exterior to the tune of five years and $87.5 million for right tackle Mike McGlinchey. They made smaller moves — some drywall here and some new appliances there — for veteran Kyle Fuller, seventh-round draft pick Alex Forsyth and others.Of 16 offensive linemen on the current 90-man roster, seven are new since March.For good reason, much of the offseason conversation regarding the offensive front has focused on free-agent additions Powers and McGlinchey ($80.5 million in guaranteed money), the return of Garett Bolles (entering third year of four-year, $68 million extension) from a lower leg fracture that cost him 11 games in 2022 and new offensive line coach Zach Strief.If this remodel is going to turn into a showpiece, though,...DPS fires McAuliffe International School principal who raised safety concerns after East High shooting
