Wisconsin’s governor wants a judge to order the legislature to give him nearly 200 million-dollars for PFAS clean-up, hospitals in western Wisconsin, and a new literacy program across the state.
Governor Tony Evers yesterday sued Republican lawmakers. He said the legislature has been holding-up his efforts to clean-up the state, and provide much needed relief to people across Wisconsin. The governor says the money has already been approved, but the legislature will not release it. Lawmakers have said the governor has no one to blame but himself for the unspent money.
Showing you different sides so you can decide, Republican leaders say the governor vetoed or charged laws that would have released the money. They accuse the governor of wanting to use the money for his own personal slush fund.
