Wisconsin should devote additional resources to collecting unpaid taxes that are owed to the state. Increasing the amount of money and staff devoted to enforcing state tax laws would increase the amount of revenue available to fund vital public services and also reduce the unfair burden on citizens who already pay the taxes they legally owe.
Proposed Tax Cut Privileges Wealthiest 1%, Leaves Struggling Families Behind
Wisconsin can be a place where we all—regardless of race or place—have what we need to make ends meet. However, last week the Republican-controlled Joint Finance Committee voted for a tax cut that would aid in gutting supports for families. Letting Wisconsin’s wealthiest off the hook from paying what they owe means many struggling families are left behind, particularly children and families of color and those furthest from opportunity. We are calling on Governor Evers to stand up for everyday families and veto this tax cut for the wealthy few.
