Gov. Tony Evers' campaign promises included a hot-button schools issue and a series of pledges to create study committees.
We check whether he's made progress on those.
As a reminder, our Evers-O-Meter tracks dozens of Evers' promises, just as we did on the Walk-O-Meter for his predecessor.
Updated promises:
— Tighten regulations on state’s school voucher program, or end it entirely
— Create an Office of Inspector General to serve as an independent watchdog
— Create ‘blue-ribbon’ panel on Veterans Trust Fund solvency
