Scott Walker is giving Wisconsin families $100 per kid. Democrats should learn from that.
“Scott Walker, the two-term Republican governor of Wisconsin currently running for a third, has a bold election strategy this year: just give people money. Starting May 15, as Wonkblog’s Jeff Stein explains, Wisconsin parents can go online and receive checks of $100 per child. The payments come a month after Wisconsin income taxes were due and are framed as a refund for “sales and use tax paid on purchases made for raising a dependent child in 2017.”
