We're not going to take this sitting down, and @MMAC_Chamber is developing a strategy to change the law, so our residents, existing businesses and future opportunities are not hamstrung by this issue. Wisconsin has the highest % of manufacturing jobs in the nation. A threat to America's manufacturing heartland is a threat Congress should deal with immediately.

Here is the environmental and economic injustice. If you were going to bulldoze every house, business and street, and in return plant trees, so SE Wisconsin was one giant forest, we would still be in the non-attainment zone. Why? Because the emissions that trigger our status originate from the Chicagoland region and Northern Indiana.

Yesterday, the MPS Board approved a $1.5 billion budget and action plan---but then adjourned into a closed session and left before the public and media were notified. @CBS58 was there cbs58.com/news/mps-board-app…
Andrew Davis retweeted
This evening the @MilwaukeeMPS board is voting to adopt a budget that will lead to the largest property tax increase in Milwaukee history. Milwaukee's property taxes are already too high. After a lack of transparency, erroneous reports, federal & state grave concerns raised, and a superintendent that "resigned" it is imperative the school board does not move forward with this vote and do more fact finding before they sock it to Milwaukee's families.

Independent fact checkers agree: the MPS referendum constitutes a 30 percent increase in the district’s property tax levy. Get the facts from the non-partisan, independent @WisconsinWatch @KertscherNews wisconsinwatch.org/2024/03/m…

Here's another reality: MPS has experienced annual operating surpluses of more than $50M per year in each of the last three years and has yet to spend all of the funding or hire for all of the positions it promised before the last referendum in 2020. cityforwardcollective.medium…

BREAKING: Today, I'm proud to sign two bipartisan bills to keep the @Brewers and @MLB in Wisconsin through 2050 and ensure future generations will grow up rooting for the home team just like so many of us have.
#ThisIsMyCrew
ALT Gov. Evers: "Through months of hard work, we were able to reach consensus and find a compromise that safeguards taxpayers and taxpayer dollars, is supported by all involved parties, and ensures the Milwaukee Brewers remain here in Milwaukee through 2050. With billions of dollars in annual economic impact and hundreds of local, family-supporting jobs, I’m proud today to be signing these bills to ensure the Milwaukee Brewers will continue being a critical part of our state’s future economic success and a defining part of our state’s history and traditions for future generations."
