Governor Evers is receiving high praise from two area lawmakers for the direction he is taking Wisconsin. Senator Mark Spreitzer says he is pleased that the governor called for critical investments in his State of the State Address this week, including children’s mental health, more affordable childcare, and cost of living. Representative Clinton Anderson noted that Evers discussed the issue of gun violence, which affects residents of Rock County. Both lawmakers believe the governor’s willingness to work with both sides of the aisle and find common ground make him a great leader.
