Assembly aproves GOP redistricting plan | Defend Wisconsin
The Assembly passed the Republican-drawn redistricting plan Tuesday on a 57-40 vote. The proposal, which passed the Senate on Tuesday along party lines, now heads to Gov. Scott Walker. No Republicans addressed the legislation on the floor. “Democracy is literally on life support in Wisconsin, and you want to give it a lethal injection,” said Rep. Mark Pocan, D-Madison.
