Earlier today Dane County Circuit Judge Maryann Sumi issued a temporary restraining order barring the publication of the Wisconsin Budget Repair Bill while she takes time to make a ruling on a lawsuit filed against its passing by Dane County District Attorney Ismael Ozanne. While this is being touted as a small victory for opponents of the bill, it does not defeat the bill. The Legislature may take up the bill in different form in full session, and state officials have said that they plan to appeal the restrianing order. While much remains to be decided, what this does do is extend the timetable for events and allow us in the Local 474 to gather more information and formulate more strategy as we move forward. Keep following us for more information as it becomes available.
