Madison, Wis., Mayor Paul Soglin
“From a revenue standpoint, we continue to see losses in state and federal aid, or mandates that create greater costs for us,” Paul Soglin tells GPN. Soglin Is the mayor of Madison, Wis.
Soglin adds: “The successful Nixon era partnership between the federal government, the states, and local government is long gone. In the meantime, our ability to meet new challenges like competing with Paris and Seoul, South Korea in providing businesses and entrepreneurs access to high speed Internet services is a joke.” The mayor says that few U.S. cities have adequate resources to compete internationally. He says city revenues are limited by a combination of federal and state constraints on spending.
