Newsmakers: Former Governor Tommy Thompson Talks Veto

He has been called the “Master of the Veto” – Wisconsin’s 42nd Governor Tommy Thompson holds the record for partial vetoes issued in a biennial budget at 457. As you’d expect, he has strong opinions about that unique gubernatorial power in light of Governor Evers’ recent controversial vetoes. On July 24, 2023, WisconsinEye’s Newsmakers Host Lisa Pugh sat down with former Wisconsin Gov. Thompson to discuss his thoughts on this year’s budget, the state of bi-partisanship in Wisconsin and the future of the UW System.
