The Wisconsin Senate is ready to vote on the governor’s appointees.
Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu last week said he is sending over 200 appointees to state against, boards, and commissions to the Senate for up-or-down votes. The nominees will first have a hearing in front of a statehouse committee. The Senate didn’t approve any of the governor’s major nominees during his first term. Le Mahieu was quick to say that just because they are getting a vote, that doesn’t mean the appointees will be approved.
