💨 Abstract

The Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled unanimously, siding with the Republican-controlled Legislature against Democratic Gov. Tony Evers. The court struck down Evers’ partial veto of a Republican bill, asserting that the Legislature can control funding of state programs through an emergency fund. Evers had argued this move was unconstitutional. The ruling highlights an ongoing power struggle between the governor and the legislature, with Evers frequently using his veto powers to counter legislative proposals.
