“This budget ensures that thousands of Wisconsin kids will no longer be deprived of the right to quality health care. It increases aid for struggling school districts, invests in our great university system and helps families pay for college and for health insurance. It protects SeniorCare and honors our promise of tuition breaks and low-interest home loans to Wisconsin veterans.”

“The budget increases the Medicaid reimbursement rate for Rock County nursing homes, doubles a state grant for Janesville’s HealthNet; provides $20,000 for the Rock County CARE House; designates $235,000 for a Janesville pedestrian tunnel; and funds an additional half-time prosecutor position for Rock County”

—Sen. Judy Robson, voting yes.
