Gusher of Money
Rep. Robin Vos, R-Caledonia, said it's disingenuous to say that the oil franchise fee won't be passed on to consumers.
"If you want to vote for a gas tax, why don't you just be honest and tell people what this is," he said.
Vos asked the LFB what the "pass-through" would be, and they told him it'd be about 7.4-cents per gallon. Vos said that equals an additional $142 million in revenue above what's outlined in the budget, "a gusher of money."
