Default Breaking: WI GOP Legislature now in trouble

The corruption, lies, theft of taxpayer money and cheating in Wisconsin appears to be deep throughout the current elected Republican Party.

"The speaker of the assembly, Fitzgerald, has contracted, at the expense of Wisconsin taxpayers, with the law firm of Michael Best & Friedrich LLC, to redraw the maps of the Wisconsin legislative districts, and has convinced all the Republican members of the legislature to sign, via MB&F, nondisclosure agreements with regard to all of this. This law firm purported to contract with the legislature to do public business (redistricting) of an intensely political nature behind closed doors, shutting out the democratic process, as well as the opposition party and the public in general. And all of this was done while being paid by the public."

Voces de la Frontera attorneys discover violations of Open Meetings law, Wisconsin Constitution in efforts to hide state redistricting process

Attorneys for Voces de la Frontera have discovered that employees of Republican legislative leaders, working under the direction of an attorney paid by Wisconsin taxpayers, engaged in secret, unlawful activities in redesigning the state’s electoral maps in an effort to hide from the public their goal of consolidating partisan power.

A verified complaint was filed yesterday by Voces de la Frontera’s attorneys with the District Attorney for Dane County alleging violations of both Wisconsin’s Constitution and statutes governing open meetings.
