Glad to be out on Pothole Patrol with @GovEvers in Stevens Point yesterday! I enjoyed hearing from our Public Works Department about everything that goes into repairing our roads and seeing them and the governor in action. Please join me in thanking them for their hard work!
Governor Tony Evers@GovEvers

🚧 It's that time of year, folks! 🚧 I’m kicking off my annual "Pothole Patrol" tour, so I'll be out there fixing the darn roads my darn self! I might even stop by your neighborhood, so come by and say hi. 👋

Packed house tonight for @RepShankland & Sen. @keldahelenroys at the Muscoda Village Hall in northern Grant County for a true public forum on the @UWSystem closing campuses like @UWRichland. Listening to the public on public universities & offering solutions. It’s a novel idea I wish more legislators & state leaders would follow.

The lack of urgency & attention to the serious issue of PFAS contamination from these legislators speaks volumes. As someone who actively tried to improve the bill & work with them, I’m disappointed with their lack of interest in releasing these vital funds. Instead we see this:

We deserve clean water & health care access. GOP legislators continue to hold up this $ - and didn’t bother to show up for work. If they disagree with funding clean water & healthcare, they should say so instead of dodging their duties. Playing politics over our health is wrong!
Governor Tony Evers@GovEvers

BREAKING: Republican lawmakers were a no-show today for the special meeting I called to release $140 million to fight PFAS statewide and stabilize healthcare access in Western Wisconsin after recent hospital closures. Am I angry about that? The answer's yes.

Thank you for your incredible work & relentless energy on this bipartisan legislation. Some said it could never be done — you proved them wrong and made history. Honored to be a part of this!

From students to educators, legislators to the AAPI coalition of Wisconsin, this has been a massive effort years in the making. I’m deeply grateful to my colleagues, especially @RepShankland & @PatSnyder56, for championing this legislation. Our diversity is our strength. 🫶🏼

Beyond words. Today, Governor Evers signed AB 232/ SB 240 into law. Now, every Asian American student in Wisconsin can look forward to learning about their heritage in the classroom. A massive, massive thank you to the bipartisan coalition that made this happen.

Yesterday, Assembly Bill 232, the Asian American & Hmong Education Bill, passed unanimously in the Assembly. Since this bill’s introduction, my office has worked with community members, legislative colleagues, & organizations including Freedom, Inc. & the AAPI Coalition of WI…

We did it. Wisconsin is now the sixth state to require Asian American/Hmong American history. It was so much fun celebrating this momentous day with the coalition of people that made this momentous day possible. @StateRepHong @GovEvers @RepShankland

This law has been working for decades. Why the need to dismantle it for PFAS as more communities face the cost of contamination? This is a false choice. The Legislature should immediately get money out the door for communities across WI - and we can keep our clean water laws too.

Ask DNR when they’ve utilized the spills law for PFAS. I’ve asked my colleagues to name an example of when it’s been misused, and I haven’t heard an answer yet. The spills law is the best tool in the toolbox to immediately get clean drinking water to communities impacted by PFAS.

"What's more disappointing and more unfair is the people who have been waiting for years for the Legislature to get their act together,” Rep. Katrina Shankland said. “How many sessions is it going to take to get something real done on PFAS?” 🧵 cbsnews.com/amp/minnesota/…

Three years ago, rioters stormed the Capitol & 147 GOP lawmakers voted to overturn the 2020 election results. It was a harrowing day for our country & must never happen again. We must work relentlessly to defend our democracy, safeguard our elections, & protect our right to vote.

Senator Kohl was a true statesman, focused on doing the most good for the greatest number of people. I was touched by his generosity and kindness as a recipient of the Herb Kohl Excellence Scholarship and deeply moved by his thoughtful public service.

I’m thrilled that the WI Supreme Court ruled that our state legislative maps are unconstitutional! The ruling also ordered new state legislative maps for the 2024 elections. This is amazing news for our democracy and voters! Fair maps empower us all to own and shape our futures.
