MADISON, Wis – Today, Governor Tony Evers announced he and Republican leadership have reached a compromise on a shared revenue plan for our state. Senate Democratic Leader Agard (D-Madison) and Assembly Democratic Leader Neubauer (D-Racine) released the following statement:

“Our local communities have been starved of shared revenue funding for years, impacting their ability to provide essential local services to their residents. We appreciate that our Republican colleagues have finally recognized the importance of this issue after their years of inaction.

“Every community in Wisconsin is impacted differently by this proposal. For some, this is progress, for others, it doesn’t cut the mustard. What we know for sure is that our work is not complete — we must continue to pursue legislation that empowers local governments and creates communities where people want to grow, live, and work.”
