TIME TO PUT THE PRESSURE ON!!! BURN UP THE PHONE LINES – PLEASE SHARE: There is IMPORTANT BUSINESS that they’re going to leave unfinished unless we insist that they do their jobs. Please pick up the phone TODAY, call your STATE SENATOR AND YOUR STATE ASSEMBLY REP. Tell them that you expect them to do their jobs and get some important legislation passed before they end session. Issue #1: THE MINING BILL – NO CHANGES The conservative members of the Senate Republican Caucus are disgusted with what’s going on surrounding AB 426. They don’t want ANY of the changes proposed by Senator Kedzie. They’ve introduced a twin to AB 426 that’s currently assigned LRB #4045. Call your senator and INSIST that this bill gets passed IMMEDIATELY! And keep the pressure on Kedzie and Schultz. Issue #2: RAW MILK (SB 108) Here’s another one where you can give Senator Schultz a piece of your mind. This bill, introduced by Senator Glenn Grothman, would restore important FOOD FREEDOMS to Wisconsinites, has been sitting in Senator Schultz’s committee for 6 MONTHS. Now he’s letting the bill’s worst enemy, the Wisconsin Dairy Association, tinker with it. You can bet the bill won’t be worth…

We are happy that the Castle Doctrine has passed the State Assembly.  Here is the link to the bill: Castle Doctrine AB69 As we have said from the start, we wanted to see strong “Stand Your Ground” language in this bill similar to what is in place in Florida.  Even though we haven’t achieved that language in this bill,  it is a leap forward in the right direction.  The bill now moves to the State Senate Thursday. Also on the calendar tomorrow is AB303 – Smart Growth Opt Out.  This bill is an important step in fighting back against Agenda 21 programs.  Contact your legislator and tell them to support AB303.
