Senate passes budget (Wisconsin Radio Network)

The Senate passed budget includes a major health care restructuring. Senate Minority Leader, Republican Scott Fitzgerald, hoped Democrats know what they’re doing. Fitzgerald said there’s no going back, if the Democrats’ “Healthy Wisconsin” plan becomes law — and fails. He even suggested they ask the governor to veto it. The author, Senator Jon Erpenbach, said “Healthy Wisconsin” will be the best plan in the nation. Fitzgerald said the overall Senate budget proves the Democrats are “the party of the tax increase.”
