MADISON, Wis. — Assembly Democratic Leader Greta Neubauer (D-Racine) released the following statement before the floor session:
“Today’s floor calendar shows that, despite our disagreements, it is possible to come together to pass good, bipartisan bills that will move our state forward—but we know that there is so much work left to be done.
“Just last week, Republicans on the Joint Finance Committee cut proposals by Governor Evers that would have lowered costs for working families and cut taxes for the majority of Wisconsinites. Removing these critical proposals from consideration and preventing future discussion is ridiculous. And on top of this, the GOP has refused to have public hearings, let alone votes, on popular and bipartisan legislation that would move our state forward.
“Bipartisan work is possible, and it is what our constituents deserve. We must do better for Wisconsin.”
