Wisconsin requires statewide ballot measures be approved by both houses in two consecutive Legislative sessions in order to be put before voters. A constitutionally-protected transportation fund was first presented as Senate Joint Resolution 23 by 36 bipartisan sponsors, and was voted upon on by both houses on May 17, 2011. It passed the Senate May 17, 2011 by a vote of 26-6, and was subsequently approved the Assembly the same day with a vote of 82-11.

Through your dedication, engagement, and financial support, families across the state have new and important protections that will improve their health and the environment. In this era of constant attacks on our environmental protections, often a win for the environment means preventing anti-conservation bills from getting to the Senate or Assembly floor for a vote – which leaves no record of legislators who fought to stop the bill. There is often no public record of how legislators voted due to frequent voice votes. And, legislators who champion the environment often can’t even get a hearing or a vote on their bills.

    Standing Committees for the 101 St Wisconsin State Legislature Will Have Bipartisan Leadership

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 4, 2012 For Further Information Contact: Rep. Robin Vos (608) 266-9171 SPEAKER-ELECT VOS ANNOUNCES COMMITTEE CHAIR ASSIGNMENTS The new speaker makes history by establishing two committees with bipartisan chairs. Madison …In an unprecedented move, Speaker-elect Robin Vos announced that two of the Assembly standing committees for the 101 st Wisconsin State Legislature will have bipartisan leadership. “Legislative committees are where most of the heavy lifting is done in creating legislation. I think that it’s important that we have a bipartisan approach on some key issues,” said Speaker-elect Vos. Rep. Travis Tranel (R-Cuba City) and Rep. Leon Young (D-Milwaukee) will chair the State and Federal Relations Committee. Rep. Chris Kapenga (R-Delafield) and Rep. Jill Billings (D-LaCrosse) will chair the Constitution and Ethics Committee. “The State and Federal Relations Committee was created in an attempt to maximize our ability to work together to find savings for taxpayers,” said Speaker-elect Vos. “The Constitution and Ethics Committee will work to find a bipartisan consensus when clarifying and amending the state’s ethics laws.” According to the Legislative Reference Bureau, it has been nearly 20 years since an Assembly standing committee had leaders from each party. In 1995-1996, Speaker David Prosser appointed Rep. Annette “Polly” Williams, a Milwaukee Democrat, as chair of the Urban Education Committee. i “I’m confident that the leaders of all the Assembly committees are ready to work across the aisle and make the tough decisions to address the issues facing our state,” said Speaker-elect Vos.

    WBA Holds Board Reception with Governor Walker, Winter

    February 2013 Chair’s Column WBA Holds Board Reception with By Dean Maytag kinda like Mark Cuban, Governor Walker, I even more when I saw this comment by him.. Winter Conference & State The future of TV is TV…. Why?, Because they want to watch TV. In continuing Legislative Day chatter about the demise of TV, the spectrum auction, internet, this truth gets lost. People want to watch TV. It’s easy to paraphrase for radio the future of radio is Radio….Why? Because they want to listen to radio. The reason is simple; we have terrific broad- casters in Wisconsin. Broadcasters are the “trusted voices” in our communities. We have spent decades building that trust with Wisconsin. They invite us in their homes for entertainment, music, Packer playoff runs, tornado alerts and tragedies. We pro- mote our local communities. Businesses rely on us Recap - Page 3 ( In President’s Column) to tell their stories. We have relationships that no other business or media can match. I recently had Highlights: a conversation with a politician who said; “I love Board Reception With Governor Walker - Page 6 my local station, it’s how I reach my constituents”. Broadcasting is his medium of choice. Who else Winter Conference - Page 7 can tell the stories or reach an audience with the trust and credibility that broadcasters bring? No State Legislative Day - Page 8 One! So the next time you read an article, blog or State Legislative Reception - Page 9 rant about the death of broadcasting. Remember Job/Career Fair & Special Thanks - Page 10 …… The future of Broadcasting is broadcasting.
