[Madison, WI] – Moments ago, Governor Tony Evers vetoed a Republican proposal to reduce taxes for the state’s middle class families. The bill would have used the existing budget surplus to fund a tax cut that would save the average taxpayer $170 a year. In response to the Governor’s veto, the Republican Party of Wisconsin issued the following statement from Executive Director Mark Morgan:
“Governor Evers has shown once again that he cares more about partisan politics than the interests of Wisconsin’s hard-working families. This tax cut was a real opportunity to put money back into the hands of hard-working taxpayers. Instead, Governor Evers is telling Wisconsin families that he cares more about pandering to his partisan allies than delivering meaningful results.”
