There is a huge divide at the Wisconsin Capitol about what to do with the state’s extra four-billion-dollars.
The state’s Legislative Fiscal Bureau yesterday said the latest numbers show Wisconsin will see an extra four-billion-dollars over the next two years. Governor Evers and Democratic lawmakers want the state to spend it on public schools, roads, and the UW System. Republican lawmakers want to use the money to pay for across the board tax cuts. Republicans will write the next state budget, but Governor Evers will have to sign it.
