Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu
Wisconsin Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu is praising the legislature’s work in lowering the state’s tax burden.
The 9th District Senator from Oostburg announced that between 2000 and 2022, Wisconsin families benefitted from the most significant tax decrease as a percentage of income of any state in the nation.
This has dropped the state from the 3rd highest tax burden in the nation at the start of the millennium to the 35th highest.
He specifically noted that “Since 2022 the state provided K-12 schools with the largest increase in new resources in history and the state continues to have a $4 billion surplus.”
Sen. LeMahieu also said that the state legislature aims to lower the tax burden even more, saying, “Senate Republicans are committed to returning the state’s surplus to Wisconsin families by continuing to cut taxes.”
