AGENDA
What is WMC’s agenda? What unfair tax policies does WMC support? What about WMC’s war on working Wisconsinites? Will WMC continue to oppose access to affordable health care for all? What environmental protections is WMC fighting against? How does WMC threaten education?
WMC couches its right wing agenda in an accessible, common sense language which belies it central mission: deploying the power and resources of government to further the corporate agenda. On issue after issue, WMC is on the wrong side for Wisconsin families: from taxes to education to health care to jobs to the environment.
The cost of WMC’s agenda is enormous. This agenda includes bills supported by WMC that would give taxpayer financed handouts to corporate interests, shift the tax burden away from corporations, or give tax breaks to the wealthy.
It also includes each bill WMC opposed that would have increased payments from Wisconsin’s corporations for the services they so willingly use but are so reluctant to finance.
Since 2001, the potential cost of WMC’s agenda to the state treasury topped $10 billion – a cost of $1,800 for every man, woman and child in Wisconsin.
Monetary costs are one part. WMC also spends money lobbying and advertising against common sense, quality-of-life legislation that would make Wisconsin an even better place to live and work.
