Wisconsin GOP Won’t Enforce Anti-Union Law Following Injunction

HeadlineApr 01, 2011

Wisconsin Republicans have announced they will stop trying to enforce their anti-union law following a judge’s ruling it has not yet taken effect. On Thursday, Dane County Circuit Judge Maryann Sumi reinforced a temporary restraining order she had initially issued last month blocking the measure’s implementation. Sumi had ruled Republican lawmakers were likely in violation of state open meeting laws when they pushed the legislation through. Earlier this week, Republicans and top state officials had said they would ignore the order and enforce the law’s provisions.
