MacIver Institute Statement on Governor Evers’ Decision to Retire:
Again, we ask, what happened to the $9,000,000,000 that Governor Evers could have used to replace WI lead pipes over the last 5 years? Why wait until now to make an actual investment?
I'm proud to have signed a bipartisan budget that continues our work to ensure every Wisconsinite has access to clean, safe water—free of lead, PFAS, and other contaminants that have long been known to harm our kids, families, farmers, industries, and communities.

We've all been saying it for a very long time! @MacIverWisc @AFPWI @HunterNation @NRA @EIwatchdogs and more organizations. Regardless of party accountable government is a must.
HOLY SHT 🚨 Scott Presler appeared on Fox News and in 1 sentence perfectly laid out what the future of the Republican Party looks like: “The future of the Republican party must be a party that when we elect you into office, you do right by the American people” PERFECTLY SAID 🔥
A clerk just not counting ballots? This is a colossal failure that compounds voters' lack of trust in elections. Voters deserve the confidence that their vote will be counted, not ignored. It's not working! maciverinstitute.com/news/wec-madis…

✅A 15% spending increase, the highest in 20 years. ✅$700M in budget surplus when we started with $4.4B. ✅$3.2B in borrowing, the most since Jim Doyle was Governor. This budget is anything but a conservative victory. See the numbers for yourself: maciverinstitute.com/podcasts/maciv…

“The idea of the state being the sovereign in granting these sovereign-like powers to a private organization, i.e. a labor union, is really an interesting question" “These are fundamental questions that need to be argued..." via @MacIverWisc maciverinstitute.com/news/national-…

As we shared last week, UW is raising tuition again, after receiving more than $1B in the Governor's budget for '25-'27. This is the 3rd straight tuition hike. Our students and taxpayers deserve better. It's not working! maciverinstitute.com/news/uw-regent…
What happened to the $9,000,000,000 the Governor could have used to fix WI's lead pipe problem? Read MI's reporting from March calling out Gov. Ever's lack of a strategic plan that led to billions of wasted taxpayer dollars: maciverinstitute.com/perspectives/t…
I had a chance to visit Superior to learn about the work they are doing to replace lead pipes and ensure clean, safe drinking water for folks and families. And I was glad to sign a bill recently to help ensure they can get the funding needed to get this done. 🚰
Thank you Senator Felzkowski for holding the UW System accountable. This is a massive burden to place on, not only WI taxpayers, but also our college students. We asked Gov. Evers to sound the alarm, but glad you did. It’s not working!
The Universities of Wisconsin got over a billion new dollars in the state budget, so what are they doing? Raising tuition!
And the Board of Regents decided to make the kids pay more. weau.com/2025/07/10/boa…
After receiving $1,000,000,000 more from the taxpayers in the 2025-27 budget thanks to Governor Evers, the UW system says thank you by raising the tuition for our kids. wpr.org/news/universit…
We've said this from the start, the legislature should have started the budget process from ZERO, instead of copying and pasting last years' budget on to this years'. This process is unsustainable, especially with Governor Evers at the helm. This is not working!
The common theme of Governor Evers’ administration is that Wisconsinites continue to get the short end of the stick. Today’s ruling reaffirms this truth. It’s not working. Read more of our reporting on this issue here: maciverinstitute.com/news/legislatu…
