MADISON — The John K. MacIver Institute for Public Policy released the following statement in response to Gov. Evers’ State of the State speech:

“Governor Evers can say whatever he wants, but the truth is this: It’s Not Working. Our students are falling behind, our workers are falling behind and because of that our state is falling behind. The MacIver Institute has always told the truth and held our elected leaders accountable, and we will continue to do just that through the final days of the disastrous Evers administration.” — MacIver CEO Annette Olson
