Evers vetoes Republican bills to allocate federal pandemic relief money
As expected, Governor Tony Evers on Thursday vetoed a package of Republican legislation that would have directed how the state would allocate $3.2 billion in federal COVID-19 relief money.
The Democratic governor also announced some $420 million of the federal funding coming to Wisconsin will fund a grant program to assist small businesses
“This money has to get out quickly,” Evers said during a press conference at a Wauwatosa small business. “It’s much more easy and direct if it’s not going through a hundred hands in the legislature, versus one administration that has done this several times already.”
