The Wisconsin Supreme Court on Wednesday ruled against Gov. Tony Evers (D-WI) in a fight with the state’s Republican legislature, resulting in a decision that restricts the governor’s veto powers.

The court’s justices unanimously struck down Evers’s partial veto of a GOP bill that details $50 million in spending on reading literacy programs for K-12 students. The bill doesn’t allocate any of the money.
