Can't repeat that fact enough. NONE of the Minimum Markup on gasoline goes to pay for roads and bridges. It needs to be repealed. If not by amending the budget, then by stand alone legislation. Who will step up and do what is right?
Items identified to be removed are things like @GovEvers' proposals to decriminalize some amounts of marijuana; limits on enrollments in voucher schools; drivers licenses and in-state tuition for people who are living here illegally; repeal of minimum markup for gasoline
Agreed. But it won't impact state coffers. Can't repeat that fact enough. NONE of the Minimum Markup on gasoline goes to pay for roads and bridges. It needs to be repealed. If not by amending the budget, then by stand alone legislation. Who will step up and do what is right?
Hang onto your wallet. Because the Mandated Markup is a percentage, not a fixed amount, as the price of gas rises, so does the amount of money taken from you as the Minimum Markup. Remember, NONE of the minimum markup helps pay for our roads and bridges. https://t.co/gCnJxCzUNF
Do you know how you can tell the minimum markup has a significant impact at the pump? Just watch how hard supporters of this obscene guaranteed revenue to gas merchants fight to keep it. https://t.co/N0AwciImoJ
On second thought, the Minimum Markup is fine. It’s ok that Wisconsin state government picks winners and losers in the private sector and forces higher prices into consumers. We need to be protected from low prices!

Official State of Wisconsin budget documents peg state-mandated markup on fuel at 14 cents a gallon. None of this money goes to the state for our infrastructure needs. This is all guaranteed revenue for the sellers of fuel. Full budget: https://t.co/9ULqJciUjI
Big news! So, now, will lawmakers listen to Wisconsinites? 76% oppose the state-mandated markup on gasoline. This markup does NOTHING to fix or build roads and bridges. There is growing consensus to end this expensive crony capitalism! https://t.co/AfVM1ait2N
Crony Capitalism. The Minimum Markup on Gas is abhorrent. It's a hidden tax on consumers, but the $ doesn't go to fix our roads and bridges, it is a state-mandated profit margin for some in the private sector. It is Big Government, anti-free market and anti-consumer. Repeal it.
The Minimum Markup on Gas is abhorrent. It's a hidden tax on consumers, but the $ doesn't go to fix our roads and bridges, it is just a star-mandated profit margin for some in the private sector. It is Big Government, anti-free market and anti-consumer. It needs to be repealed.
Racine Journal Times agrees it is time to repeal the Minimum Markup on fuel. None of that state-mandated markup goes to fix or build our roads and bridges!
