Gov. Tony Evers signed a sweeping coronavirus relief package Wednesday after lawmakers approved it with just two days to spare before the state would have lost out on hundreds of millions of dollars in federal help. The Democratic governor signed the bill, which also suspends a one-week waiting period to receive unemployment benefits, two hours after state senators unanimously approved it. The overall measure was championed by both parties despite a cloud of criticism over a last-minute amendment from Republicans that scaled back their original plan to offer more worker's compensation protection for first responders. Evers called the legislation a step forward, but short of what the state needs. He called on lawmakers to provide hazard pay to health care and child care workers as well as assistance to farmers and shuttered businesses.
