Taxpayers in Wisconsin know the truth about their record on taxes, and it will come back to haunt Democrats in 2010 no matter how many times they try to pat their own backs.

MADISON – Democrats are still oblivious to the plight of Wisconsin taxpayers, according to Republican Party of Wisconsin Executive Director Mark Jefferson.

Just months after approving $5 billion in new taxes on struggling Wisconsin families and businesses, today Democrats are touting an analysis of tax rankings compiled using data from 2007 in an attempt to convince voters that Democratic leaders have somehow contributed to a better tax climate in Wisconsin.

“Democrats just hiked taxes in Wisconsin by $5 billion during a recession,” Jefferson said. “Only Wisconsin Democrats could think a $5 billion tax hike is an improvement.”

Jefferson said taxes have gone up beyond taxpayers’ ability to pay in the current recession as a result of Governor Doyle rewarding his friends with spending hikes while our state’s roads and infrastructure crumble.

“The Doyle record is nothing to be proud of or to run on, but, as Jim Doyle’s hand-picked successor, Tom Barrett will have to,” Jefferson said. “Taxpayers in Wisconsin know the truth about their record on taxes, and it will come back to haunt Democrats in 2010 no matter how many times they try to pat their own backs
