Wisconsin lawmakers are voting on a constitutional amendment to limit the governor's veto powers.

Wisconsin lawmakers are racing to complete their work for the session by voting on tax cuts, veto powers, and other proposals. The Assembly is voting on a constitutional amendment to curb the veto powers of Wisconsin's governor, which are the broadest in the country, and the Senate is expected to vote on rejecting one of Democratic Gov. Tony Evers' appointees to the Department of Natural Resources policy board. The moves come as the Assembly plans to finish its work for the session on Thursday, with the Senate wrapping up next month. Lawmakers will then quickly turn to campaigning for the fall election under new maps signed into law by Gov. Evers. The Senate is also set to give final approval to a package of bills that would cut taxes about $2 billion.
