Gov. Tony Evers, in conjunction with AG Josh Kaul, made it known Wednesday Wisconsin will participate with other states in a lawsuit regarding the attempt to divert federal monies under the guise of a national emergency.

Owners of agricultural event venues, commonly referred to as wedding barns, will be able to continue to operate without applying for liquor licenses, according to Gov. Tony Evers.

This funding will go a long way to support a vast network of fast recharging stations across the entire state.

Now is not the time to go wobbly.

The Wisconsin Democracy Campaign, the venerable nonprofit that keeps tabs on how big money is spent to influence Wisconsin politics and shares that information with the public, notes on the organization’s website that the 2018 governor’s race cost a record $93 million.

Increased taxes, regulation would undo gains made under Walker.

Time for Evers and legislators to sit down at the bargaining table, e.g., combining a gas tax hike with transportation-related fees.

At the end of the day, Evers can only claim he is adding $294.1 million to local and state road improvements, while increasing taxes and fees by $600 million. His critics could add that without bonding, Evers would only be increasing total road spending by $69 million.

What may have been true for eight years under GOP’s departed governor Scott Walker is undergoing the crashing sounds of change.
