Across Wisconsin, we heard people ask for strong schools, affordable child care, housing, and property tax relief. After 15 years of underfunding by the WI GOP and federal chaos under Trump, Governor Tony Evers’ budget meets the moment, delivering a positive way forward for Wisconsin.


Did you know Wisconsin grows 98% of the nation’s ginseng? In Wausau, we met with Hsu’s Ginseng Enterprises, Inc. to discuss the impact of federal trade policy on their industry and how the state can help. Farmers need stability, not more volatility, to keep doing what they do best.

Threatening to arrest a sitting governor for briefing his staff on their legal rights is outrageous. Thank you, Governor Tony Evers, for standing up to Trump and not backing down in the face of this blatant political intimidation.

Republicans just released their plan to gut Governor Tony Evers budget so they can deliver a tax cut to their ultra wealthy donors. We will fight back, and push for a budget that brings stability and lowers costs for all Wisconsinites.

After weeks of delays, WIGOP wrapped w/out expanding postpartum care or sufficiently funding long-term care. But thanks to Governor Tony Evers, we did secure $330M for childcare & the largest special ed investment in WI history. Still, it's not enough, & the fight is far from over.
