GET ME REWRITE: Once again, Wisconsin Republican shit on their most sacred principle


It's nothing more than a cartoon conservative principle, folks!

Principle:  Republican Party of Wisconsin (highlight added)
HeadlineWisconsin Public Radio, 4/19/2023
Wisconsin communities would not be allowed ban people from buying gas-powered cars or appliances under a pair of Republican bills passed along party lines in the Wisconsin Assembly on Tuesday. 
The legislation would prevent Wisconsin's state and local governments from enacting zero-emission mandates that would phase out vehicles, lawnmowers, ovens and other consumer goods that use fossil fuels in favor of those powered by electricity. 
While seven states have announced plans to ban sales of gas-powered vehicles after 2035, Wisconsin is not one of them. Republican lawmakers argued the bills were a proactive measure.
