Another day, another pledge

The no-tax pledges continue to add up as the budget stalemate drags on.

This spring, 11 members of the Assembly signed the Boots & Sabers blog pledge.

Then this summer there was the Club for Growth Wisconsin pledge that attracted 23 Assembly members, including two Democrats, and six Senators.

Now, there's the Grover Norquist-led Americans for Tax Reform pledge that has gathered support from those six Senators and 24 Assembly members.

Rep. Marlin Schneider, D-Wisconsin Rapids, wonders if the no-tax pledges are the reason the budget is going on four months overdue.
