Hooray. More lies from the corrupt liar Robin Vos.
Dump Vos
Congratulations on such a transformative Juvenile Justice model. This whole last Legislative session has been a real civics lesson on how a strong and functioning state government can work for the people. Many differences, some behind-the-scenes and some public, but ultimately both sides came together for the good of the state. This has happened many times with this Legislature, and the people of Wisconsin are benefiting immeasurably from it.
Democrats said to do this TEN YEARS AGO! Robin Vos is just another Republican liar and fraud. Just like all GOP goons. Yes Terry is correct.
Dump Vos
