WisGOP should be branded for latest tax scheme

A few thoughts from the Democratic Leader of the State Assembly, as GOPs plan to call for a 10 1/2 month paid vacation after a marathon session today.

1. WI GOP cuts K12 education beginning in ‘11.
2. More than 150 districts vote to raise property taxes to offset cuts.
3. GOP adds private schools to property tax bill.
4. Property taxes spike.
5. WI GOP rejects Evers plan to lower property taxes.https://t.co/UTc7pt5KZb

By comparison, the GOP's latest Tax Scheme will end up raising property taxes on homeowners while cutting them for businesses, and giving a pittance of an income tax cut that not everyone will get. All while doing NOTHING to invest in our roads and schools.

When that bill gets to Gov Evers' desk, he should take a page from the book of former Montana Gov Brian Schweitzer.



Then call a Special Session in March or April, and tell Robbin' Vos and Scott Fitzgetald to get serious.
