Useless bills passed by Wisconsin GOP simply to campaign


Listen Later

While the Wisconsin state Legislature works just 17 more days before taking off until 2027, it did vote on around 50 bills in one day.

We discuss some of the Republican bills are simply passed for culture war purposes to be used during the campaign season with the governor’s seat up for grabs in November.

Those bills include defunding public education, redefining abortion, using undocumented immigrants as pawns in healthcare, and creating added bureaucracy to create more hoops for those who apply for welfare. 

We also discussed a bill to create a candy and soda database at the tune of $6 million to make sure people on food stamps can’t spend it on such things, and another bill on human trafficking that would put children at risk of unnecessary punishment.
