Republicans are inching closer to sending their middle-class tax cut plan to Governor Evers.
The Assembly passed the bill yesterday afternoon. It now goes to the Senate and there would be a vote tomorrow. Evers has said he can’t support the bill because it relies on a budget surplus to backfill the lost revenue.
The Democrat has his own plan. Half of it would be funded by capping a tax credit on manufacturers. He hasn’t said how he would fund the rest and he wants it to be part of the state budget debate.
Republicans have balked at the thought of capping tax breaks for manufacturers saying there’s no need to raise taxes on them in light of the surplus
