He argues the bipartisan plan shifts tax burden to taxpayers and warns of deficits and tax increases if the current bill passes. Governor Johnson may veto. Adair hopes a special session reflects taxpayer interests. Doubling as a lieutenant governor candidate, Adair criticizes eight years without tax hikes and calls lawmakers mischief makers amid education summer break timing.
