Governor Tony Evers is rejecting a measure requiring Wisconsin state employees to spend most of their work time in a physical office.
Assembly Bill 39 would’ve required state employees to spend 80 percent of their work hours in an office starting New Year’s Eve. Evers said he rejected the bill in its entirety and accused the legislature of “encroaching on the executive branch.” He also argued it would have an impact on Wisconsin taxpayers and “jeopardize the efficiencies” of state government. It was one of 19 bills Evers took action on last week.
