Wisconsin Governor-Elect Crowley Pledges in First TV Interview to Sign Congressional Redistricting Bill
MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin — In his first television interview since winning the election, Governor-elect David Crowley said that if the Democratic-controlled Legislature passes a congressional redistricting bill early next year, "if it comes to my desk, I'll sign it."
Speaking on WISN 12's UPFRONT program, Crowley said he would use his first 100 days to tackle affordability, schools and health care, while stressing that he would not be a rubber stamp for the new Democratic state government. His immediate priority, he said, is building a transition team for a smooth handover; he made no specific promises for the first 100 days, saying the agenda will be set by what voters raised during the campaign.
Crowley also addressed Milwaukee County's $4.56 million budget gap and budgeting error: the county budget office had known for weeks, while the County Board of Supervisors only learned of it the day after his election victory. Crowley takes office as governor of Wisconsin in January.
