Legislative Leaders To Governor: Sign It

Republican legislative leaders are urging the governor to sign the state budget bill passed this week.  For the first time in 14 years, the two-year spending plan got bipartisan support.  Seven Democrats joined Republicans voting for it.  Governor Tony Evers told a crowd in Green Bay he is “looking forward” to spending time going through it.  When he officially gets the budget he will have six days to sign it, make changes, or veto it.  Assembly Speaker Robin Vos says members of the Joint Finance Committee worked hard to minimize opportunities for Evers to make changes.
