FILE - Wisconsin Democratic Gov. Tony Evers speaks at a campaign stop, Oct. 27, 2022, in Milwaukee. Evers is suing the Republican-controlled Legislature, Tuesday, Oct. 31, 2023, arguing that it is obstructing basic government functions, including signing off on pay raises for university employees that were previously approved. MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin Democratic Gov.
Evers and the GOP-controlled Legislature have had a contentious relationship from the moment Evers was elected in November 2018. He has issued more vetoes than any other Wisconsin governor, including blocking numerous bills changing how elections would be run in the key presidential battleground state.
Republicans have worked to increase the number of seats they hold to near veto-proof supermajorities. They have the necessary two-thirds majority in the Senate and are two votes shy in the Assembly.
