Rep. Nass defends UW budget cuts (Wisconsin Radio Network)

A Republican legislator is defending the GOP budget against attacks by the Governor and UW leaders.

The budget adopted by majority Republicans in the Assembly does not “slash and burn” the UW system in the ways university officials, the Governor, and union leaders claim. That’s according to State Representative Steve Nass (R-Whitewater). He says the budget does reduce spending, but much of that was done in top heavy areas of the administration.
