Dem Party chair Garcia on everything from movie sequels to Gov. Evers taking power from GOP
William Garcia in the WIZM studio Tuesday for La Crosse Talk PM discussing movie sequels in theaters, how Gov. Evers took the power of funding public schools from the GOP in Wisconsin, the tax cut plan that wasn’t and Rebecca Cooke’s bid to unseat Derrick Van Orden in the US House.

Garcia is the La Crosse County and 3rd US House District Democratic Party chair.
We began the show talking about how there are multiple sequels in theaters right now — Mission Impossible, Spider-Man, Indiana Jones and whatever garbage the Transformers is putting out — and then got into whether you should watch a subbed or dubbed movie.
After that, we talked about “Cooke for Congress,” details in how that race might turn out in the 3rd Congressional and Wisconsin’s gerrymandered maps.
We then dove into Gov. Evers’ veto pen powers on the state budget to fund public education for the next 402 years, cut up the tax cut plan (mostly for the rich) and how the state could better spend its $7 billion budget surplus.
