Republicans' proposal heightens the political battle between Democratic Gov. Tony Evers — who said he would veto any budget that cuts the System's diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programming — and legislative Republicans, who have repeatedly stated their intent to cut those programs.
Republicans' plan proposes to redirect the $32 million in DEI money toward UW System initiatives to develop the state's workforce. But that money could only be made available if the System requests it and the budget committee signs off on it.
