(Actual) Public Hearing for Revenue Restrictions Amendment Set

The location? The conservative bastion of Waukesha County.

Nothing like putting it right on your home turf. Why not Madison or Milwaukee, I wonder? Madison seemed to be good enough for the invitation-only hearing last week...I guess it's a fine locale as long as the crazy Madisonian liberals aren't allowed to talk.

Waukesha County Executive Dan Vrakas is one of two local government officials to actually come out in favor of the amendment. The other, Scott Walker, is really more of a candidate for governor than a local official, so we might want to put the real tally of local officals at 1 1/2. In any event, I'm sure Vrakas will be on hand for the event and, if the cameras are rolling, we can probably expect Walker to make an appearance, too.

Other particulars...

Date: March 4
Time: 4:00pm
Location: Country Springs Hotel in Pewaukee

In other news, the anti-gay marriage amendment is set for a vote in the Assembly this coming Tuesday. If it passes, as expected, there will be nothin' left between our state constitution and institutionalized discrimination except the people.
