DESCRIPTION

The plan to allow Milwaukee and Milwaukee County to raise their sales taxes and take themselves off a fiscal cliff are now state law. But the city of Milwaukee is preparing to go to court to fight the spending restrictions that are also now law. Assembly Speaker Robin Vos told reporters at the Wisconsin Capitol Wednesday that’s a bad idea.
