Wisconsin Republican Budgeteers Claim New LFB Analysis Backs-up GOP Budget Warnings

The Republicans who will write Wisconsin’s new state budget say the latest breakdown shows they are right. The Legislative Fiscal Bureau on Wednesday released a line-by-line breakdown of Gov. Tony Evers’ $104 billion two-year state budget. The LFB analysis doesn’t offer any commentary on the governor’s spending proposal. Instead it simply tracks where the money would go and just how much the governor wants to spend. Joint Finance Committee co-chairmen Rep. Mark Born, R-Beaver Dam, and Howard Marklein, R-Spring Green, said the analysis jives with what they’ve been saying about the governor’s budget for weeks. --- Listen to Other ATN Productions: America in Focus: A weekly feature of the top TheCenterSquare.com stories of the week out of Washington D.C. with commentary from The Center Square editors and more!
