Representative Anderson Votes to Reject Budget

MADISON, Wis – Representative Clinton Anderson votes to reject the 2025-2027 Biennial Budget.

“K-12 schools, child care providers, hospital operators, transit systems, and the UW system have been asked to do more with less for far too long. I am sincerely grateful that Senate Democrats were at the table to negotiate big wins in some areas, but this budget is just not doing enough to set us up for long term success.”

“Republicans today passed a budget that amounts to a broad property tax increase across Wisconsin. I introduced an amendment that would incentivize property tax freezes for counties and municipalities, but that amendment was rejected. Instead of providing this critical support, this body has forced our communities into a vicious cycle of raising their own taxes.”
