Gov. Evers Announces Plan to Send 20 Percent of State's Sales Tax Back to Local Communities
Statement
Issues: Taxes
"For a decade now, our local municipalities have been forced to do more with less. They've had to make impossible decisions about what essential services to fund in our communities, having to choose between paying for first responders, addressing PFAS, fixing the roads, and other critical priorities," said Gov. Evers. "The state must fulfill our obligation to ensure our local partners can meet basic and unique community needs alike, and this historic investment will ensure that we do. I look forward to working with the Legislature to find common ground in the weeks and months ahead to fund our communities now and with growth into the future."
