The governor's office says voters would then need to file a petition to the WEC. A vote would be held at least 120 days after that petition is filed. I'm hopeful that as we ring in a new year in Wisconsin after fair maps, we will see a legislature that's more collaborative, more responsive and reflects the will of the people of the state, the governor said. Affordable housing, addressing the state's child care crisis and public school funding are among his priorities this cycle. Governor Evers is set to deliver his 2025-2027 biannual budget on February 18th of this year. (01:27–01:43)
