Governor Evers is repurposing highway signs that his Republican predecessor installed, declaring the state to be “open for business.”
Former Governor Scott Walker ran on the motto in 2010, and put 23 signs in place at the state’s borders. But now those signs are being sawed in half by the Evers administration, to be converted into “detour” signs.
Republican Rep. John Macco of Ledgeview asked what would happen with them. He believes converting them to detour signs is ironic, because “that is exactly the result his policies may produce.”
