$250,000 funding

A bipartisan committee of Wisconsin legislators approved $250,000 in funding for WisconsinEye, a nonprofit livestream service covering legislative sessions. The funding, allocated $50,000 monthly starting August 1, supports operations until December 2026, enabling coverage of legislative events and public hearings. WisconsinEye, which faced a funding shortfall and a two-month shutdown earlier this year, seeks long-term financial stability as it operates independently from the state Legislature.
