The Land of Cheese and Freedom – In a bold move against the governor’s overreach, the Wisconsin Assembly Republicans are making their voices heard. They’re done with the governor’s tax-hiking shenanigans and won’t stand for it any longer!
A group of GOP heroes, led by the illustrious Rep. Amanda Nedweski, R-Pleasant Prairie, are championing Assembly Joint Resolution 112. This resolution is set to change the Wisconsin Constitution to put the brakes on the governor’s ability to unilaterally stick it to hardworking Wisconsinites with sneaky tax and fee hikes. No more of these sneaky maneuvers from a governor who thinks he’s above the law!
Wisconsin Assembly Eyes Limits on Governor’s Veto Powers https://t.co/ZF7n5wkr9N @wisgop @megellefsonshow @WICRs @DanODonnellShow @yount1130 @VickiMcKenna @MarkBellingShow #breakingnews #wisconsin https://t.co/ZF7n5wkr9N

Rep. Nedweski is spitting fire, calling out the governor’s misuse of his veto powers. She’s reminding everyone about Republican Gov. Tommy Thompson’s unforgettable “Vanna White” veto and more recently, Democrat Gov. Tony Evers’ jaw-dropping 402-year tax increase. It’s clear as day that the governor can’t be trusted with this kind of power.
But fear not, fellow Wisconsinites, because Rep. Nedweski has a plan. This constitutional amendment isn’t just about wrangling in Evers; it’s about setting the stage for all future governors. It’s time to clip those overgrown gubernatorial wings and bring balance back to the good ol’ separation of powers.
And here’s the best part, folks: this isn’t a one-and-done deal. The Assembly’s got their eyes on the prize for the long haul. They’re not just crossing their fingers and hoping for the best. They’re ready to bring this amendment all the way to the voters, who will have the final say on this crucial issue, likely next spring.
So, brace yourselves, folks! It’s time to put the power back where it belongs – in the hands of the people and the legislature, not in the hands of a governor who’s got more tricks up his sleeve than a circus clown. And with Rep. Nedweski leading the charge, the good people of Wisconsin can rest assured that their voices will be heard, and their hard-earned money will be protected from political scheming.
