Wisconsin Ends 8th Straight Fiscal Year With Money In The Bank

Outgoing Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker says his administration is leaving the state in its best financial condition in a generation.  The 2018 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report shows Wisconsin ended the last fiscal year with a surplus of more than 558-million dollars.  That allows the state to enter the current fiscal year with the second-largest opening balance over the last 18 years.  Walker says the surplus will help “drive the state forward.”
