Surtax Main GOP Target in Wisconsin Budget Debate
Madison AP says Senate debate opened on a budget-tax bill Republican leaders aim to overhaul. Main GOP target is a 0.2 percent income tax surcharge, with an alternative plan seeking a mix of income and sales taxes backed by Gov Warren Knowles. The measure would raise about 105.4 million over two years to balance 839.3 million in spending, funding a simplified filing form and reduced personal property taxes, while extending Wisconsin’s 3 percent sales tax to more items. The Assembly's Democratic bill would balance with 822.5 million and include an 85.4 million surtax, with debate stalled as Republicans vow no major concessions.
