Speaker Vos: Statement on Act 10 Ruling
Act 10 upheld in its entirety. A Dane County judge made a political, not a legal, decision.
Madison…Speaker Robin Vos (R-Rochester) released the following statement on the federal court ruling on Act 10.
“Today’s federal court ruling confirms what we’ve known all along: Act 10 is constitutional. What we’ve seen in this case--and with so many others before it--is that a liberal Dane County judge made a political, not a legal, decision.”
“These reforms have played an important role in balancing budgets at the state and local levels. I encourage those who have not utilized these tools to begin incorporating them to the benefit of taxpayers.”
