Wisconsin Republicans are poised to deliver $2 billion in tax relief to families thanks to the state’s current budget surplus, totaling an estimated $4,000 per family over the next 3–4 years.
That plan is under threat from Democrats, led by far-left Gov. Tony Evers, who want to block Republicans’ tax relief plan, Senate President Mary Felzkowski (R) told Restoration News in an exclusive interview.
Now billions of dollars are on the line—and it could all come down to control of the Wisconsin Supreme Court after the state’s all-important April 1 election between liberal Susan Crawford and Republican ex-Attorney General Brad Schimel.
Before the planned legislation can become a reality, Felzkowski explained, lawmakers will need Evers to prioritize the financial needs of Wisconsinites reeling from the effects of former President Biden’s high inflation. This means Evers would need to relent from abusing what the Republican leader describes as “the strongest veto pen in the nation.”
If the envisioned legislation is implemented, Felzkowski said middle class families can expect to see “thousands of dollars” in tax cuts “accumulate” in just a few years.
“That’s money coming back to you, and that’s money we didn’t take out of your pocket,” she continued. “These dollars will build up year after year.”
