Wisconsin Supreme Court reviews legality of Governor Evers' 400-year school funding extension veto.

The Wisconsin Supreme Court is reviewing a legal challenge to Governor Tony Evers' 2023 veto that extended public school funding increases for 400 years. Evers increased funding by $325 per student annually until 2425 by altering legislative language. Critics argue this use of veto power violates a 1990 constitutional amendment prohibiting such changes. The court's ruling could impact future gubernatorial veto powers in Wisconsin.
