AGP Executive Report
Last update: 7 hours agoWisconsin’s New Majority: David Crowley defeated Tom Tiffany to become the state’s first Black governor, while Democrats flipped both legislative chambers and won their first state-government trifecta since 2010. Crowley says affordability and health care are priorities, with housing, utility, child care and property-tax costs among the issues he wants to tackle. Constitutional Changes: Voters approved two amendments, including a limit on the governor’s partial-veto power, and rejected a third proposal concerning government closures of places of worship during emergencies. School Funding: Voters approved 45 of 79 school referendums, leaving many districts without requested funding. School officials say revenue limits have lagged rising costs, while the state superintendent calls the funding formula broken. Milwaukee County Budget: Officials found a $4.56 million gap in the proposed 2027 budget after an automated system reversed figures in two airport accounts; they plan to identify savings to cover it. La Crosse Governance: A council committee backed a proposal to create a city administrator position, shifting some duties from the mayor, and rejected the mayor’s competing plan.
