“We remain deeply committed to the safety and security of every person who walks into a courthouse in Wisconsin. This includes victims, litigants, attorneys, and the dedicated public employees who work to ensure justice prevails.
While today’s budget action did not include any additional security for the court system, we will continue working toward solutions that reflect the needs of judges, court staff, and the public.
We thank Governor Evers for prioritizing court security in the budget and look forward to continued dialogue with the Legislature on how best to support the safety and effectiveness of our courts.”
