Republican lawmakers' continued obstruction of $140 million to fight PFAS statewide and support healthcare access in Western Wisconsin is beyond ridiculous. Enough is enough. It's time to release these funds. wisconsinexaminer.com/2024/04/16/gov…
While Eau Claire suffers with the healthcare crisis, Republicans couldn't be bothered to come home and do their job. Instead, they were wining and dining in the swamp. jsonline.com/story/news/pol…
#ICYMI Yesterday, @JFCDemocrats were ready to take action on the $125 million already approved by the legislature, but their Republican counterparts didn’t even bother showing up. Over 120 communities are suffering from #PFAS contamination in WI. We need action NOW!
Not a single Republican showed up yesterday. Does anyone really think voters should show up for them in November? "You have an obligation to release (the funding), and it seems we are wasting time and energy of the people of Wisconsin." @GovEvers

BREAKING: Republican lawmakers were a no-show today for the special meeting I called to release $140 million to fight PFAS statewide and stabilize healthcare access in Western Wisconsin after recent hospital closures. Am I angry about that? The answer's yes.
While no Republicans attended the meeting, @GovEvers made a surprise, unannounced appearance and blasted Republicans for not showing up. “This is one they whiffed on, big time.”
As promised, no Republicans show up to convene a meeting of the Legislature’s budget-writing Joint Finance Committee called by @GovEvers He wants the committee to release $125 million in PFAS funding, but Republicans don’t want to turn it over to DNR to spend

Nearly 11 months since @SenKeldaRoys warned the PFAS trust fund was imaginary without JFC GOP approval. Our colleagues are still living in pure imagination. No remediation for Wisconsinites if Republicans refuse to provide the DNR with resources to serve the people.

I enjoyed meeting with representatives from the 39th Annual @SuperiorDays event at the capitol today. We discussed a wide range of issues, including the need for greater investments in affordable housing, mental healthcare, improving water quality, school funding, CWD, and more.
Holy mackerel
Our state wouldn't be what it is today without Hmong and Asian American Wisconsinites. I was glad to celebrate #HmongHeritageMonth in Wausau today by signing bipartisan legislation to add Hmong and Asian American histories to K-12 school curriculum.
It’s official and published‼️ What a way to commemorate Hmong Heritage month in April and Asian American Heritage month in May.
HSHS' doors have been closed for over a week now. Republicans need to get serious and release the $15 million in already-approved crisis response funding so babies and families like this have the healthcare access they need. wqow.com/eye_on_eau_cla…
Republicans in the Joint Finance Committee continue to delay the release of $15 million to help alleviate fallout from the HSHS closure. Action is needed now by Legislative Republicans for the Chippewa Valley Region. #HSHS #SacredHeartHospital legis.wisconsin.gov/senate/31/smit…

While Wisconsinites worry about poison in their water and hospital closures, Republicans are arguing over who is allowed to schedule a meeting.
BREAKING: Republican lawmakers were a no-show today for the special meeting I called to release $140 million to fight PFAS statewide and stabilize healthcare access in Western Wisconsin after recent hospital closures. Am I angry about that? The answer's yes.
It’s unacceptable that this funding has sat unused for months, while people like those in the Town of Campbell have been forced to drink bottled water. We can’t wait for clean water, people in the Town of Campbell need these resources now.

People in Brown County and Wisconsin as a whole deserve leaders who will show up for work and try to get things done for them. Republicans in the Legislature failed them today.

Democrats are the only members in attendance at a meeting of the Joint Finance Committee called by @GovEvers to address PFAS/hospital aid funding. Republican committee leaders said last week they were not obligated to actually meet
Whether it’s PFAS remediation or access to health care in western Wisconsin, Democrats continue to show up for the people of Wisconsin while Republicans continue to disregard the needs of Wisconsinites.

Republicans have refused to release even one cent of our $125 million investment to fight PFAS statewide. That's just wrong. It's time to release these funds and get this important work done for folks and families across our state.
