Dem Gov. Tony Evers signed his legislative maps, which were approved by GOP lawmakers, despite concerns from Dems they could be challenged in federal court.
Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu says Gov. Tony Evers’ “word and promise are on the line” ahead of tomorrow’s deadline to sign or veto his legislative maps.
First Lady Jill Biden in a Green Bay stop touted efforts to prepare students for careers, adding she wants the rest of the country to look to northeast Wisconsin as an example.

On this week’s episode of WisconsinEye’s “Rewind,” CBS 58’s Emilee Fannon and Milwaukee Journal Sentinel state politics reporter Jessie Opoien discuss the GOP-controlled Legislature passing Dem Gov. Tony Evers’ legislative redistricting maps, results of Assembly and Senate floor sessions this week, Republican businessman Eric Hovde’s campaign announcing he will join the U.S. Senate race, the developing field to replace GOP U.S. Rep. Mike Gallagher, Tuesday’s spring primary and more.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, offer their take on the abortion issue and its impact on the 2024 elections. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and the Tommy G. Thompson Center on Public Leadership.
A spokesperson for Eric Hovde confirmed to WisPolitics that the Madison businessman next week will officially launch his campaign challenging U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin, D-Madison.
The agency called the language its “standard practice” on redistricting bills.

The GOP-run Legislature approved Tony Evers’ proposed new maps, sending them to the Dem guv after he said he’d sign them so long as Republicans didn’t make any changes.
GOP U.S. Rep. Mike Gallagher has several options for the more than $4 million he had in the bank to end 2023 after his surprise announcement that he won’t seek reelection this fall.
Gov. Tony Evers says if the Republican-controlled Legislature passes the maps he submitted to the Wisconsin Supreme Court, he’ll sign them into law.
U.S. Rep. Mike Gallagher, R-Allouez, announced he won’t seek reelection this fall, saying the “Framers intended citizens to serve in Congress for a season and then return to their private lives.”
On this week’s episode of WisconsinEye’s “Rewind,” WisPolitics’s JR Ross and CBS 58’s Emilee Fannon discuss the latest in the redistricting case before the state Supreme Court, a potential investigation into state prisons following inmate deaths, Republicans’ $2.1 billion tax-cut plan, results of the latest Marquette University Law School poll and more.
The state Elections Commission unanimously approved the Green Party for Wisconsin’s presidential ballot, perhaps complicating Joe Biden’s path to winning the state again.
Attorneys for GOP lawmakers and conservative voters demanded the state Supreme Court reject two consultants’ report that recommended ignoring their proposed maps for legislative districts and only considering plans submitted by Dems.
