While short on details, his speech serves as a guidepost for the issues he will prioritize during his second term. In February, Evers will release his two-year state budget plan, which will include details about the state's projected $6.6 billion surplus.
On Tuesday, Evers doesn't plan to mention the surplus specifically — instead he'll highlight key priorities such as cutting taxes for the middle class and not just wealthy residents. Evers opposes a Republican plan to move toward a flat income tax rate, which would lower taxes more dramatically for those at the highest tax rate.
Evers is also calling for"generational, transformative improvements as to how we invest in our local communities and keep them safe." He has called for increased funding to local governments, while Republican legislative leaders are discussing a plan that would give counties, cities, towns and villages a portion of the state sales tax revenue.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP

Sara Rodriguez; Attorney General Josh Kaul; Secretary of State Doug La Follette; state Treasurer John Leiber; 17 members of the state Senate and all 99 members of the Assembly. There are seven new state senators and 24 new members of the Assembly being sworn in.

Worst governor Ever(s)
Bye Bye Wisconsin
Wow
Evers is held in check. Republicans control the house.
At least that useless Mandela Barnes is gone, working 3rd shift at McDonald’s flipping burgers probably.
He wants to increase workers by giving Medicaid. How many people would quit work if they had free healthcare?

Democratic leaders name affordability as ongoing goal for 2023 legislative sessionHousing, water, gun violence and affordability will be among the sweeping priorities for lawmakers when historic Democratic majorities gather in the state Capitol for the start of the 2023 legislative session next week, General Assembly leaders said. Historic majorities have done *so* much over the last 8 years! Homeless and crime are down, housing affordability is up and gun violence is at an all time low! What can’t coloradodems do?!? Haven't they already done enough 'affordability'? I mean we're paying more for everything. They've grown gov't adding to our burden. I shudder to think what more 'affordability' measures they have in mind. Maybe raise the price of milk? Bread? copolitcs coleg The bluer CO legislature becomes, the less it’ll be able to self-reckon. This means that nothing bad will be their fault and everything they do will be righteous.
