For all those in Wisconsin who are incensed, as am I, that healthcare was passed by the Congress, here is the next step, or at least one of them. Wisconsin Attorney General Van Hollen has examined the legislation, determined that it violates the Constitution and is asking for the authorization to join other states in challenging the legislation.
In order for this to happen, Mr. Van Hollen requires authorization from either the governor (fat chance), the State Assembly (again, not likely) or the state Senate. Mr. Leibham and others have joined in crafting a resolution to give Mr. Van Hollen that authorization from the Senate.
The legislation is LRB−4576 and it will be coming before Senator Decker (R-Weston) the Senate majority leader within the next few days. The authority to bring this resolution up for a vote rests in his hands. I would suggest that we all contact Mr. Decker at Sen.Decker@legis.wisconsin.gov to share a wish that the Senate authorize Mr. Van Hollen to pursue a challenge this legislation legally along with the Attorneys General of several other states.
