The following program is a PBS Wisconsin original production.

Mark Born:

The Governor’s budget is always reckless spending that the state can’t afford.

Frederica Freyberg:

Following failed negotiations with the governor, Republicans in the state Legislature unveiled their vision of the numbers for education, shared revenue and taxes.

I’m Frederica Freyberg. Tonight on “Here & Now,” we look at the numbers from the powerful budget committee and a proposal to try out wraparound mental health support in schools. Then we zoom in on central Wisconsin communities and the impact of federal cuts. And finally, from addiction recovery to assistance in the classroom, what the ruling on AmeriCorps funding means for state programs. It’s “Here & Now” for June 13.
