Wisconsin Finds $753M Windfall After Spike In Tax Collections

Federal tax law changes have provided the state of Wisconsin with 753-million dollars in revenue which wasn’t expected.  The extra money is showing up at the same time lawmakers are working on the two-year spending plan.  Governor Tony Evers says 56-million should be used to pay down debt and 33-million should go to technical colleges and workforce development.  Some Republican leaders say they agree about paying down the state’s debt, but they want to put some of the money in reserve and give the rest back to taxpayers.
