Mr. Smith Explains Shared Revenue (Hour 2)
It shouldn’t be this hard for the Wisconsin Legislature to share tax revenue with local governments so that important services can take place. Unfortunately, a power-hungry Republican majority has been strangling local budgets and interfering with local decision-making. Democratic state Sen. Jeff Smith, who was previously a town chairman, offers perspective on what’s gone wrong and the best way to make it right. Also: Terry Bell with ‘3 Things to Know’ to start the week.
