On Sept. 21 Rep. Todd Novak, incumbent Republican candidate for Wisconsin’s 51st Assembly District, sat down with Steve Walters of WisconsinEye for an interview. Novak beat his Democratic challenger, Jeff Wright, in a close contest Nov. 8. Novak told Walters one of his top priorities is funding transportation, but he was concerned about additional borrowing to fund improvements. He said more attention should be given to revenue enhancers, including toll roads and raising the gas tax. Novak acknowledged reluctantly that he would consider voting to raise the gas tax. 
Is Wisconsin’s gas tax among the highest in the nation?
