Madison, Wis. — Statement from Senate Democratic Leader Dianne Hesselbein (D-Middleton) and Assembly Democratic Leader Greta Neubauer (D-Racine):
“The people of Wisconsin have a reasonable expectation that their elected leaders will work together to produce a state budget that prioritizes what matters most: lowering costs for families and investing in public education. It is unfortunate and disappointing that Republicans have chosen to walk away from bi-partisan negotiations on the budget. This decision creates yet more uncertainty in a difficult time. Democrats will continue to stand up for all Wisconsinites and work to move Wisconsin forward through the budget process.”
