Yes, Evers can veto maps by the Legislature.

is there going to be a more fair map assuming the GOP doesn't get super majorities

A bill has been introduced to implement ranked choice voting for federal congressional elections in WI.  It has bipartisan support, though it’s mostly republicans that are opposed.  It would create a top-5 jungle primary.
