Capitol Notes: Tony Evers Faces Challenges As Inauguration Day Dawns

Althouse

Today is Inauguration Day in Wisconsin, and Tony Evers will be sworn-in as governor.  The Democrat defeated Republican Incumbent Scott Walker last November. 

Evers' term could be marked by gridlock as he battles a Republican-led legislature, which has already taken steps to limit his power.

For this week's "Capitol Notes," WUWM's Marti Mikkelson asked JR Ross of wispolitics.com, about the other challenges Evers will face in the first few months of his tenure.

Marti was a reporter with WUWM from 1999 to 2021.
