Legislative Republicans Walk Away From Delivering for Wisconsinites

MADISON – The four Democratic members on the Joint Finance Committee released the following statement following Republicans abandoning a bipartisan compromise with Governor Evers:

“Instead of fully funding our public schools, preventing the closure of child care centers, or meeting the healthcare needs of Wisconsinites, Legislative Republicans have caved to the extremist wing of their party and walked away from budget negotiations with Governor Evers.”

“As members of the Joint Finance Committee, we will continue to fight for the priorities that Wisconsinites across the state have been demanding throughout this budget process.”
