Statement on Evers Tax Plan
Madison – Representative Rob Hutton (R-Brookfield) issued the following statement in response to Governor Evers’ Tax Plan. “In contrast to the Republican middle class tax plan, Governor Evers’ tax plan clearly demonstrates that he does not understand the private sector as shown by his irrational commitment to punishing our state’s job creators by raising their taxes,” said Rep. Hutton. “Wisconsin’s manufacturers employ 500,000 people in our state and the Manufacturing and Agriculture tax credit has been responsible for creating 42,000 new jobs. Over the past year Wisconsin has the highest manufacturing growth in the Midwest but now Governor Evers’ reckless tax hikes would stop Wisconsin’s manufacturing renaissance in its tracks. Republicans have shown that, through careful fiscal management, we can invest in Wisconsin job creators and still reduce the tax burden on hard-working Wisconsin families. I will continue to fight for all Wisconsin taxpayers to ensure that they are able to keep more of their hard earned money.” The 13th Assembly District contains parts of Milwaukee and Waukesha counties and includes Elm Grove and portions of Brookfield, Milwaukee, Wauwatosa, and West Allis.
