Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers is asking Republican leaders of the Senate to release three-point-seven-million dollars in state money to pay for programs helping the homeless.
The funding has been pending for four months. The Assembly passed the bills, but they have stalled in the Senate and the Joint Finance Committee won’t release the money while the bills are pending. It would be used to helping low-income people with housing, cover some of the cost of emergency shelters and pay for support efforts getting homeless people into permanent homes.
