Republicans Propose Granting Legislature Redistricting Power
In Madison on Tuesday the Assembly introduced a Republican sponsored resolution reappportioning the state’s districts to bypass Gov. Reynolds veto. The measure mirrors the rejected bill that would add two seats for Waukesha County while Milwaukee County stays at 24. If upheld in court, it claims legislative redistricting authority without needing a law. The move risks new legal battles as Reynolds already faces a reapportionment suit in the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Senate action focused on minor items, including shoreline voting for land clearance and hospital payment reforms.
