Judge issues tempoary injunction for WI law
A WI judge has issued a temporary injunction after a lawsuit was filed in Dane County. The lawsuit alleges that the law is no good because it violates the open meeting law that requires a bill to be available for viewing 24 hours before a vote is considered. Republicans were forced to strip away parts of the bill from the original bill because the bill had fiscal implications which means that a super majority is requred to pass the bill. The bil as re-introduced would simply need a simple majority to pass the bill. Of course the larger perspertive is that the state legislature must balance its budget. This may be a procedural hurdle but misses the larger point fiscal restrant. Public unions cannot hold the govverment hostage by demanding unreasonable concessions. Most public employees unions make a better than competitive wage.
