Second Wisconsin Senate Republican to Vote ‘No’ on State Budget

Another Wisconsin Republican lawmaker says he’s a ‘no’ vote on the proposed two-year state budget.  Senator David Craig of Waukesha says the G-O-P plan spends too much money.  Craig said, “there’s no way on Earth Wisconsinites are spending ten-percent more in their households, in their businesses. The economy is improving, but the economy is not government-proof.”  Craig says he could accept a two-percent spending bump.  Senator Steve Nass of Whitewater also plans to vote ‘no.’  Two more defections and Republicans won’t be able to pass their budget.  G-O-P leaders claim the new budget is more conservative than what Governor Evers proposed.
