Evers doesn’t play nice with others.
MADISON (WKOW) — Gov. Tony Evers said Thursday he has not been in talks with Republican leaders in charge of the legislature while GOP leaders on the committee that writes the budget said they could start taking votes on removing items from Evers’ budget as soon as next week.

“If the question is specifically ‘is there room to negotiate on tax increases, the answer to that would be ‘no,'” Born said. “There’s a lot of stuff in this budget that are areas of agreement, things we can work on, agree with, and negotiate if that’s what people want to do in the governor’s office but tax increases is absolutely not one of them.”
Why doesn’t he just show up to one of the committee meetings?
Why not? Because the Pubbies would shred him like cheese. Tony’s not very bright and neither is his staff. They need a LOT of time to respond to any proposals.
We just got a couple of billion stimulus from the feds. Of course we need to raise taxes.
