WI Legislators Budget Sound Off

Wisconsin Legislators are sounding off regarding the recently passed Wisconsin State budget. Wisconsin’s 31st District Senator Jeff Smith applauded Governor Evers use of the veto pen saying the Governor vetoed a tax break for the wealthy while retaining tax breaks for middle- and low-income Wisconsinites. Meanwhile, Assembly Speaker Robin Vos claims Evers’s vetoes eliminated tax cuts for all married taxpayers making more than $36-thousand and all single filers’ earning more than $27-thousand. The newly signed stated budget also allows schools to increase per pupil spending by $325 each year, for the next 400 years. The original budget allowed the increase through the 2024-25 school year.
