Gov. Tony Evers (D-WI) said he is willing to veto the Wisconsin state budget if a return-to-work policy for state employees is included.

Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, a Republican who is frequently at odds with Evers, said he wants to require state employees to work multiple days per week. Evers argued that the remote-work policy benefits rural communities, as they do not have to relocate to the state’s capital, Madison.
