Governor Evers Declares Energy Emergency in Wisconsin

Governor Tony Evers signed an executive order Wednesday declaring an energy emergency in the state of Wisconsin (Wednesday).  The governor pointed to a late corn harvest and sudden cold snap for a sharp increase in demand for propane.  Ever says hundreds of thousands of Wisconsinites depend on propane to heat their homes and right now farmers are depending on it to dry their corn.  He said in his order, “ensuring that we get propane to these folks is critical for the health, safety, welfare, and economic well-being of Wisconsinites across our state.”  It temporarily lifts restrictions on truck drivers delivering propane throughout the state.
