Wisconsin’s governor continues to add priorities to his state budget proposal.
The governor yesterday said pay raises for prosecutors and prison guards in the state is a must. Governor Evers says low pay is hurting D.A. offices across the state. He wants prison guards in Wisconsin to get a 13 dollar-an-hour raise. The Republicans who will actually write the new state budget say they could agree to a raise, but it won’t be anywhere near the 13 dollars extra the governor wants.
