Republican congressman Tom Tiffany, running for Wisconsin governor against Democrat David Crowley, said he would return a $3 billion budget surplus to taxpayers.

Republican congressman Tom Tiffany is running for Wisconsin governor against Democratic Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley. The election takes place in three weeks.

Tiffany outlined his fiscal priorities in an interview with Wisconsin State Capitol Bureau Chief Vanessa Kjeldsen. He said his first action would be to return the $3 billion budget surplus to taxpayers, implement a 10 per cent middle-class income tax cut, and eliminate taxes on tips and overtime, which he said was already done at the federal level.

On data centres, Tiffany said conditions should be in place before development. He proposed that no data centres should be built if they would increase electricity rates for people already on the grid, and insisted on full transparency without non-disclosure agreements. He said local communities should have input and control over data centre projects. When asked about a one-year moratorium his home county implemented, Tiffany said 'there's nothing wrong with having that timeout for a while'.
