MADISON, Wis. A budget battle in the Wisconsin Assembly played out Tuesday, with Republicans touting $3.4 billion in income and property tax cuts while Democrats pushed for more education funding.
It’s one of the final steps in a months-long process, with the plan set for final Assembly approval and scheduled next for a vote on the Senate floor Wednesday before reaching Gov. Tony Evers’ desk.
Debate stretched for hours on Tuesday afternoon and evening, with Democrats introducing multiple amendments for things like accepting federal BadgerCare expansion dollars that failed to get support. In a technical amendment, Republicans passed a change that would make parts of the budget more difficult for Gov. Evers to partially veto.
The University of Wisconsin-River Falls received vital support today for its proposed Science and Technology Innovation Center.
The Wisconsin Legislature Joint Committee on Finance voted Wednesday, June 9, 2021, to include a $111.73 million request toward the $116.73 million SciTech project in the stateâs 2021-23 capital budget.Â
âThe commitment will allow UWRF to move forward with plans to replace its terribly outdated science facilities and offer a unique university/business collaboration hub that will benefit our students and local employers alike,â Interim Chancellor Connie Foster said. âWe will actively be exploring options regarding the additional $5 million in gifts and grants required for the project, having already benefited from a $1 million challenge gift from UWRF alumni entrepreneurs Jeff and Kristi Cernohous.â
