Tax incentives for Kimberly-Clark could hit roadblock in Senate heading into election. (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 7/26/2018)
Kapenga belongs to the most conservative wing of the Senate GOP caucus. Others who often side with him — Steve Nass of Whitewater, Duey Stroebel of Saukville and David Craig of the Town of Vernon — haven’t said whether they will support the deal.

Even Scott Walker knows he can't get away with such a bald-faced lie.
Walker said both parties are to blame.
The GOP has a 18-15 advantage in the State Senate and, as the article points out, there aren't enough Republican votes. That means at least one other senator does not support the Kimberly-Clark proposal. (Paging Steve Nass, Duey Stroebel, David Craig.)
