Evers
RACINE â Wisconsin Democrats are calling on people across the state to put pressure on their Republican counterparts to undo their efforts to hollow out Gov. Tony Eversâ proposed 2021-23 budget.
Vos
Eversâ proposal was expected to be picked apart by the Republicans who control the Legislature, just as his administrationâs first proposed budget was two years ago. This time around, Evers was praised by progressives and slammed by conservatives for including, as Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, R-Rochester, put it, âhundreds of divisive policy itemsâ in his budget proposal.
Now, progressive leaders are touring the state trying to drum up support for Eversâ original proposal and to reach out to Republican legislators to encourage them to undo some of the trimming already done to the budget. The 2021-23 budget is to take effect July 1, so a budget or some other compromise needs the governorâs signature before then to avoid a shutdown.
