The Wisconsin Senate has passed the two-year state budget and forwarded it to Governor Evers.
The vote Wednesday night was 23-to-9.
The state Assembly had approved the $87-billion spending plan after eight hours of debate Tuesday.
Now, the governor has six days – not including Sundays – to take action on the budget.
He can sign it or use his partial veto powers to rewrite it.
If he does nothing, the budget becomes law.
