This is such dishonest journalism (but I repeat myself). Yes, some lawmakers have businesses that used PPP loans to help stay afloat during government mandated lockdowns. They voted to eliminate Evers’s tax on ALL businesses who accepted state PPP aid. https://twitter.com/patrickdmarley/status/1359924742736740356
“The media doesn’t pick sides” the GOP wants to eliminate a surprise tax on small businesses who have struggled with the economic impact of the pandemic/govt imposed shutdowns.

The media chooses to report it as “Republicans give themselves a tax cut.” Embarrassing.
Imagine a scenario in which Gov. Walker decided he would tax businesses on the relief he offered them. How do you think people like Patrick Marley would report it?
