Dem Gov. Tony Evers in his sixth State of the State address announced plans to make contraception easier to obtain for those on BadgerCare, demanded GOP lawmakers come up with a plan to preserve the state’s child care industry and vowed to veto any attempts to restrict abortion access.
The motion asks the court to reconsider its rejection earlier this month of the lawmakers’ first request to delay the case to provide more time to raise issues.

The proposal cleared the chamber 17-14 with GOP Sens. Joan Ballweg, of Markesan; Julian Bradley, of Franklin; Chris Kapenga, of Delafield; and Eric Wimberger, of Green Bay; joining Dems in opposition.

The White House had previously announced that Harris would be in Wisconsin on Monday, but hadn’t said where. It will be her fifth visit to the state since she was sworn in.
Assembly Majority Leader Tyler August blasted Rep. Janel Brandtjen as a grifter for repeatedly trying to introduce a resolution to impeach Wisconsin Election Administrator Meagan Wolfe during Tuesday’s floor session.
The petition, filed yesterday, argued a foundation of the lines now in place was the court’s 2021 decision to take a “least change approach” to the maps that Republican lawmakers drew a decade earlier. Now that the new liberal majority has thrown out that standard, the brief argues, there’s no justification to keep in place congressional lines based upon the same principle.
Gov. Tony Evers, who hasn’t said whether he will seek a third term in 2026, raised money at a slower clip last year than he did over the same period four years earlier.

The state Elections Commission is studying whether the Wisconsin Supreme Court’s ruling throwing out GOP-drawn legislative maps bars a recall effort against Assembly Speaker Robin Vos.
Senate majority Leader Devin LeMahieu says he’s not convinced former President Donald Trump is the best pick to widely appeal to GOP voters in Wisconsin.
