Wisconsin Supreme Court Agrees to Hear Evers’ Challenge to Legislature

Wisconsin’s new liberal-majority Supreme Court has agreed to take up a case that could limit the state legislature and give Gov. Tony Evers a more leeway to accomplish his priorities. The Supreme Court agreed to hear part of his challenge to legislative vetoes. The governor sued the Republican-controlled legislature in October over its use of statehouse committees to stop a massive conservation project expansion and to block pay raises for University of Wisconsin workers.
