Apparently Republican Speaker of the Assembly Robin Vos doesn’t think redistricting reform is worth considering.
“Nobody cares,” Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, R-Burlington, finally concluded earlier this week as he tried, repeatedly, to dismiss suggestions by the Wisconsin State Journal Editorial Board that he should convene a public hearing on redistricting reform.
“I hear from newspapers, I don’t hear it from any of the public,” added Rep. John Nygren, R-Marinette, co-chair of the powerful Joint Finance Committee, who was also present at the meeting.
Since Robin Vos seems to think “nobody cares” about real redistricting reform here in Wisconsin and Rep. John Nygren says he hasn’t heard from “any of the public,” I’d like to challenge those of you reading this to give Reps. Vos and Nygren a call, write them a letter, or shoot them an email and let them know that you care about redistricting reform.
Here’s the contact information for Reps. Vos and Nygren.
