The package also includes a resolution to amend the state constitution to require a two-thirds legislative vote in order to raise taxes. Assembly Speaker Robin Vos says this is another attempt to get Governor Evers to do the right thing after he vetoed tax cuts in the state budget earlier this summer. The pitch is that these proposals are returning the surplus to the people.

Smart elected officials will do everything they can to keep taxes low.
