Is Reform Dead in Wisconsin?

Two newspaper articles today – one from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel about the possible death of ethics reform and one from the Wisconsin State Journal about the possible death of electoral reform – show that reform may be dead this legislative session.

Add that to another bill addressing election reform being pulled from the Assembly’s calendar on Tuesday (SB612), after passing unanimously in the Senate, and suddenly it seems that reform is on life support in Wisconsin a month after the last trial ended of a state elected official.

Does the public care or are their elected officials really out of touch? Or will that be decided this November?
