Anti-Collective Bargaining Law Update

The budget repair bill that stripped collective bargaining from public employees remains tied up in court proceedings in Dane County. Judge Maryann Sumi is holding firm on her May 23rd filing deadline for all legal briefs.

The anti-collective bargaining bill is facing a challenge of a violation of Wisconsin's open meetings law.

Judge Maryann Sumi has suggested on more than one accassion to the defendants (Wisconsin Legislature Majority) that the matter would be a mute point if they would simply bring the legislative bill back before the legislature and take it through the process once again ensuring compliance with all notices and public meetings, but the Legislature Majority refuses saying they have already passed the bill once, legally.
