- Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers is reviving a plan to let voters repeal and create state laws without legislative involvement, facing opposition from the Republican leader of the state Senate who indicated the idea will likely be rejected again.
- Evers plans to include a mandate in the upcoming state budget for legislators to consider a constitutional amendment allowing voters to petition for ballot proposals.
- The Republican-controlled legislature has previously rejected Evers' proposals, including a similar one in 2022 aimed at repealing the state's 1849 abortion ban.
- Evers criticized Republicans for ignoring public opinion on issues like marijuana legalization and gun control, stating they are enacting policy through constitutional amendments.
