Viking Garbage

Sen. Decker responded to Fitzgerald by blasting the GOP's lack of counter-offer to the UW budget proposal from the Dems. He also asked how Republicans can claim their budget doesn't include any tax increases when they limit eligibility for the Homestead program that will result in an $81 million increase on some low income residents. "Yet you include a quarter million tax cut to people who collect gold bullion," Decker said.

He also said the Dems proposal to take the Senate position on the tipping fee would deter our neighbors to the west from hauling trash here. "Why would we want to continue to take Viking garbage?" he asked.
