GOVERNOR EVERS LAUNCHES STATE BUDGET DRAFTING PROCESS WITH RELEASE OF HIS EXECUTIVE PROPOSAL
Governor Evers state budget proposal for the next two years features a host of water-related items but limits any major new initiatives to the management of PFAS. He presented his Executive Budget to a joint session of the Wisconsin Legislature last Wednesday evening at the State Capitol. This begins the months long process of passing a comprehensive spending package for Wisconsin for the next two years (the state’s fiscal year runs July-June, so the new budget would take effect on July 1 or as soon as it is passed thereafter).
