Senator Marklein: The Best of Our Budget

Published | Video Starts at 00:12

This budget was the product of months of negotiation. It was shaped by compromise between houses, between parties and between branches of government. There is a lot to like in this budget. For starters, it provides tax relief to almost every single Wisconsinite. (00:12–00:16)
