Assembly Republicans Statement on Budget Negotiations
MADISON…Assembly Speaker Robin Vos (R-Rochester) and Assembly Finance Co-Chair Mark Born (R-Beaver Dam) issued the following statement:
“We would like to thank Governor Evers and his staff for engaging in good-faith negotiations to try to reach consensus on large portions of the state budget.
“Assembly Republicans remain open to discussions with Governor Evers in hopes of finding areas of agreement, however after meeting until late last night and again this morning, it appears the two sides remain far apart.”
“The Joint Committee on Finance will continue using our long-established practices to craft a state budget that contains meaningful tax relief and responsible spending levels with the goal of finishing on time.”
