A bipartisan Wisconsin bill seeks to restore funding for the state’s public affairs network, WisconsinEye, after it went offline due to a funding shortfall.
A bipartisan bill introduced in the Wisconsin Assembly on January 22, 2026, aims to restore funding for WisconsinEye, the state’s public affairs network that went offline in December due to a funding shortfall.
Led by Assembly Speaker Robin Vos and Minority Leader Greta Neubauer, the proposal establishes a $10 million trust fund using state money, with annual interest supporting the nonprofit’s operations while it continues fundraising.
The plan seeks to ensure long-term stability, restore public access to legislative and judicial proceedings, and promote government transparency.
While the Assembly has agreed to the measure, Senate approval remains uncertain, as Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu has requested financial and governance documents before committing to funding.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court plans to livestream upcoming oral arguments, and a short-term contract will allow WisconsinEye to broadcast February legislative sessions.
