MADISON, Wis. (AP) ? Wisconsin's net budget surplus grew to nearly $1 billion, money that Gov. Scott Walker and Republican legislative leaders are eyeing for income and property tax cuts.
The net total surplus of $977 million was fueled by $893 million in tax collections above earlier projections, the nonpartisan Legislative Fiscal Bureau reported Thursday.
News of the surplus, expected for weeks but larger than many anticipated, will set off a feeding frenzy in the Capitol among lobbyists, special interest groups and lawmakers all trying to spend a piece of the pie.
