6-21-19 state supreme court ruling lame-duck session

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin Republicans are heralding a state Supreme Court ruling affirming a lame-duck legislative session used to pass laws limiting powers of the Democratic governor and attorney general. The conservative-controlled court ruled 4-3 Friday in favor of Republicans. Republican legislative leaders say the ruling is a “common sense decision.” Assembly Speaker Robin Vos and Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald called on Gov. Tony Evers to stop “pursuing his political agenda through the courts.”
