Democratic Gov. Tony Evers traded tax cuts for increased spending on higher education, schools and child care in a Wisconsin budget compromise with legislative Republicans.

Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers signed the state’s budget into law in the early morning hours Thursday after the state Legislature passed the bill during sessions that spanned all of Wednesday with the Assembly running into early Thursday.

Gov. Evers signed the budget, now 2025 Wisconsin Act 15, at 1:32 a.m. in his office Thursday, less than an hour after the Assembly passed it.
