MADISON, Wis. (WRN) — Republican lawmakers react to Democratic Governor Tony Evers’ 2026 State of the State address.

“The state of our state is strong, but not for the reasons you heard earlier tonight. The state of our state is strong in spite of the governor, not because of him. Thanks to strong Republican majorities here in the legislature, Wisconsin families have only seen one example of what state government could look like with full Democrat control,” said Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu.

Evers said Republicans need to do better than the plan they sent to him this week that would offer tax rebate checks, a school levy tax credit, and special education reimbursement.
