I\u2019d like to think that this has a chance of succeeding<\/a>, but I doubt it with our Leftist Supreme Court.<\/p>\n

\n

There are new challenges to Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers\u2019 400-year school funding increase.<\/p>\n

Both the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty and the Institute for Reforming Government recently filed amicus briefs with the Wisconsin Supreme Court, challenging the governor\u2019s veto power.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe partial veto power is a tool in the governor\u2019s toolbelt, but it has a specific purpose. When it comes to fiscal policy, the partial veto power is a one-way rachet. It empowers the governor to tighten public spending and taxation by eliminating or reducing budgetary items, but it does not permit the reverse. The governor cannot use the partial veto power to increase either appropriations or revenue. That function requires a different tool \u2013\u00a0legislative power \u2013\u00a0which is not in the governor\u2019s toolbelt,\u201d IRGs brief states.<\/p>\n

Evers changed a line in the current state budget to change a two-year school funding increase into a 400-year increase.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Recognize that if\/when the Republicans are able to reverse this some time in the future, the liberals will accuse Republicans of cutting school funding.<\/p>\n
