Wisconsin Property Taxpayers, Inc. (WPT) is the voice of Wisconsin’s property taxpayers
in the State Capitol, working to reduce the statewide property tax burden and reform
Wisconsin’s antiquated and regressive property tax system.
Founded in 1985, WPT represents
the interests of thousands of commercial, agricultural and residential property taxpayers
throughout the state who volunteer their financial support and personal commitment
to the organization and its objectives.
WPT is the only statewide taxpayers’ organization
registered with the Ethics Division of the State’s Government Accountability Board
to lobby exclusively for property tax relief and reform.
