Rick Esenberg founder, President and General Counsel of the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty (WILL) joins the inFocus program. Rick Esenberg and Jim Schneider discuss the many Constitutional Liberty cases that WILL is undertaking for the citizens of Wisconsin. They discuss the recent passing of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and the great debate in the country regarding the nomination of a replacement. On behalf of three Wisconsin residents and taxpayers, WILL filed a lawsuit in Polk County Circuit Court against Governor Tony Evers for violating state law by declaring a second public health emergency on July 30. State law forbids a governor from unilaterally extending a public health emergency beyond 60 days or skirting the law by declaring multiple 60-day emergencies for the same crisis. The Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty (WILL) filed an original action to the Wisconsin Supreme Court asking for a review of the Dane County health department’s order closing all schools, public and private, for grades 3-12. The original action is filed on behalf of 8 Dane County families, 5 private schools, School Choice Wisconsin Action, and the Wisconsin Council of Religious and Independent Schools (WCRIS). All these topics were discussed at length. Viewers were encouraged to call or text in their questions for Rick Esenberg.
