Today at the Wisconsin state capitol, we should learn more about the divisions between Republicans over shared revenue.
The State Senate is holding its first hearing on the proposal.
Republicans in the Senate and Assembly disagree on raising the sales tax in Milwaukee, despite their desire to use some of the state’s sales tax revenue to provide local governments more money.
Senate Republicans want to give Milwaukee and Milwaukee County leaders the right to vote, but Assembly Republicans want people to have a say.
The disagreement poses a risk to the proposal to distribute more than $500 million in state funds to local governments throughout the state.
