Wisconsin’s lieutenant governor says Republicans in Madison are violating ‘the will of the people’ by saying ‘No’ to Governor Evers’ new budget. Mandela Barnes was in Wausau last week to talk about the governor’s proposed state budget.
He says Republicans are living in their own little bubble if they think that can stop the ideas included in the spending plan. The budget would raise taxes by a billion-dollars over the next two years, and spend six billion more on everything from new driver’s licenses for illegal immigrants to an expansion of Medicaid that could cost a half-billion dollars.
