WI: “Senate Republicans take cautious tack on GAB, campaign finance bills”

Madison.com:

Undecided Senate Republicans are grappling with pressure from groups on opposing sides of bills to replace the state’s Government Accountability Board and rewrite state campaign finance law.

The GOP-controlled Assembly voted largely on party lines to pass the bills last week, less than two weeks after they were introduced.

But the Senate, also under Republican control, isn’t rushing to get the bills to the desk of Gov. Scott Walker.

“I don’t think there’s any sense of urgency, at least on my part,” Sen. Howard Marklein, R-Spring Green, said Tuesday. “I’m still studying the options.”
