MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Republican Senate candidate Leah Vukmir is quizzing Democratic incumbent Sen. Tammy Baldwin about her vote against a Republican tax overhaul bill in Congress. Vukmir attended a Baldwin lunch Thursday hosted by Wispolitics.com. She asked Baldwin about the recently approved tax bill during a question and answer period after Baldwin spoke. Baldwin says she opposes the tax bill because tax cuts for the middle class are temporary and out of proportion to benefits to large companies. She says that while workers at Kimberly-Clark in northeast Wisconsin will appreciate the tax cuts, the company rewarded them by closing two plants. Baldwin says, “I don’t begrudge anybody the tax return they’re going to get … I just wish it was permanent.” Vukmir is running against Delafield businessman Kevin Nicholson for the Republican nomination.
