The Wisconsin Supreme Court is trying to figure out if there are any limits to the governor’s veto powers. The liberal-majority court yesterday heard arguments over Governor Tony Evers’ 400-year school funding veto. That’s where the governor erased a few numbers from the last state budget and turned a two-year school funding bump into a 400-year increase. The governor’s lawyer said Wisconsin’s ban on changing letters to create new budgets only applies to letters, not numbers. The justices, however, questioned whether there are any limits to what the governor can do with his powers.
