Governor Evers is holding a virtual education budget listening session on December 16 at 6 p.m. to hear from Wisconsinites about the issues that are important to them. He will use this input to develop his next state budget.
It is critical that WEMTA members attend this education listening session to discuss the importance of school library and instructional media professionals as well as the need for increased investments in educational technology.

These listening sessions are a great opportunity for you to speak directly to key members of the Governor's policy staff in Zoom breakout rooms. WEMTA has created a fact sheet that outlines our budget priorities and includes tips on how to have a successful listening session. Click here to see the fact sheet.
This is a great opportunity to:
- Provide real-life examples from the past several months that showcase the importance of school library and instructional media professionals and the need for state investments in educational technology.
- Highlight the fact that there is currently not a single state funding source that is dedicated for educational technology professional development activities.
- Showcase how lack of broadband access in Wisconsin is widening the homework gap.
