A flat income tax proposal by Republican Wisconsin Senate leader Devin LeMaiheu is unlikely to become law, as Democratic Gov. Tony Evers has voiced strong opposition to it.

The Republican leader of theproposed implementing a flat 3.25% income tax rate on Friday, a plan that Democratic Gov. Tony Evers has vowed to block saying it benefits the wealthy over the middle class.

LeMahieu also argues that Wisconsin's top rate is out of whack nationally, with 31 states having a top rate that is lower than Wisconsin's third tier rate of 5.3%. By moving to a flat 3.25% rate, only 11 states will have a lower top individual rate, LeMahieu said. Evers and Democrats in the Legislature are against the flat tax, saying it will primarily benefit wealthy people.
