LETTER: Wind energy production tax is needed

Published 9:36 am Wednesday, April 1, 2009

I live by Sargeant here in Mower County. I am writing about the wind energy production tax, specifically the 6 percent that was taken away from our local school districts in 2007. I have been visiting with a few members of the state House of Representatives and a few state senators.

I get the impression our governor needs to know how important this is to our local schools and how it was taken with no fair representative of government. Tell him to support return of the revenue to our schools that was made law in 2002 and taken away in 2007 and again in 2008. His number is (651) 296-3391.
