Madison, WI – Tonight, Senator Brad Pfaff (D-Onalaska) joined his colleagues at the Wisconsin State Capitol as Governor Tony Evers delivered the 2023-25 State Budget Address. Among other provisions, this budget would provide the largest increase in aid to municipalities and counties in decades, increase funding for public schools by $2.6 billion, build safe and reliable infrastructure, and provide tax relief to Wisconsin residents and businesses.
Senator Pfaff released this statement following the Governor’s Budget Address:
“We need to build Wisconsin’s economy from the bottom up and middle out. Governor Evers’ budget proposal invests in our working families, while putting money back in the pockets of hardworking Wisconsinites with a 10-percent middle-class tax cut.”
“This budget invests in our greatest resource: people. It gives local governments the funding to support firefighters and law enforcement, provides public schools with the resources to help students grow and learn, and gives childcare providers the aid they need to help working families participate in Wisconsin’s economy and grow our workforce.”
“When we invest in our workforce, transportation infrastructure, and public safety, we invest in a stronger Wisconsin.”
