MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The leader of the Wisconsin Senate says that Republicans who control the Legislature remain supportive of cutting income taxes for all income earners, even if there is not enough support for his plan that would phase in a flat tax rate. Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu told reporters Tuesday that he had no “line in the sand” of what he would support, but wanted to pass something that would lower rates for everyone. Democratic Gov. Tony Evers has proposed tax cuts targeting low- and middle-income earners. Other Republicans have offered hybrid plans. Both sides say they want to tap the state’s projected $7 billion budget surplus to cut taxes.
