On February 16th, Gov. Tony Evers outlined his $91 billion dollar 2021-2023 biennial budget. Despite the many challenges our state is facing right now with the COVID-19 pandemic, impacts from climate change and many residents struggling without clean drinking water, the governor's budget includes strong clean energy and clean water initiatives.
We sit down with Clean Wisconsin\u2019s Director of Government Relations Carly Michiels to break down what exactly is in the governor\u2019s budget, what happens next with the Joint Finance Committee and the future of the governor's environmental priorities.
