Once again, Wisconsin Republicans assert their cartoon conservative principle (2015 Assembly Bill 568)



Opposition mounts against GOP historic preservation bill. (Wisconsin Journal Sentinel, 12/15/2015)
[Dawn] McCarthy [president of the Milwaukee Preservation Alliance] warned the legislation would have an adverse effect on property values and remove an important economic development tool. She and others argued that municipalities should be allowed to have local control when it comes to creating and regulating their own historic districts.
