Madison, WI - On Friday, State Representative Andre Jacque (R-DePere) has introduced AB-340, an English first bill would require local and state governments to provide all of their documents in English. The bill was referred to the Committee on State Affairs for consideration. Jacque's rationale for the bill, it would make immigrants learn English.
The bill also prohibits the state or local governments from restricting residents from learning other languages. The bill has some exceptions that would allow the use of another language;
● To protect the health, safety, or liberty of any citizen
● To teach or study another language
● To protect the rights of a criminal defendant or victim of a crime
● To promote trade, tourism, or commerce
● To facilitate activities relating to the compilation of any census
● To comply with the federal Individuals with Disabilities Education Act
● To use a proper name, term of art, or phrase from a language other than English
● To comply with the constitution and laws of the United States or the constitution of this state
The bill was also sponsored by the following Republican State Representatives John Nygren, Mark Born, David Graig, Dean Kaufert, Samantha Kerkman, Stephan Nass, Alvin Ott and Dan Pridemore, including the following co-sponsors state Republican Senators Alberta Darling and Don Pridemore.
Jacque's bill would most likely limit how bilingual elected officials, Milwaukee County Supervisor Peggy Romo-West, State Representative JoCasta Zamarripa (D-Milw.) and Milwaukee 12 District Alderman José Pérez communicate with their large Spanish speaking constituency.
Another similar English first bill in 2009 was introduced by former State Representative Marlin Schneider (D-WI Rapids), but failed when it was never considered by a majority Democrat controlled Assembly.
Scott Walker remembers creating jobs as assemblyman in Wisconsin . It was easy with ALEC. 32000 UNION public sector jobs. It is not as easy this time with out using your tax dollars. Scott Walker has created ALL Wisconsin`s budget problems working for ALEC. In 1997 Walker and Prosser as state assemblymen championed for ALEC with truth in sentencing telling the legislatures it would not cost a dime. This was to give judges not parole boards the control over sentencing. Then Walker filibustered to stop sentencing changes after the fact misleading ALL the legislatures. With out the sentencing changes Wisconsin`s prisons quadrupled over night. Most people sentenced to 2 years now had to serve as much as 6o years. As the Pray for justice Blog shows . Stopping just a percentage of these long sentences Wisconsin would save 707 million per year in Milwaukee County alone. Wisconsin could have free tuition colleges. This shows Wisconsin has added 200 billion of the state budget since 1997 . Not including the building new or remodeling of 71 courthouses & 71 county jails & 273 police stations and dozens of prisons 28 billion plus interest. The total is over 70 BILLION plus the 130 Billion spent by social services to support prisoners families because the bread winner was a political prisoner as US Att gen Eric Holder explained. Then farming out prisoners in several states until the courts realized it was not allowed in the Wisconsin constitution. Wisconsin then hired 32000 union public sector workers to fill the jobs housing the prisoners from deputies , judges, district attorneys all owe Walker for creating there jobs. 32000 UNION PUBLIC SECTOR JOBS. The swat teams of all 72 counties cost 3 to 5 million and they have never saved ONE life. They have cost dozens of lives in Wisconsin. Milwaukee county alone cost taxpayers over 3.8 billion or a half million tax dollars per day to house these EXTRA prisoners. Wisconsin claims it has 24,000 prisoners compared to Minnesota`s 5500. Wisconsin`s corrections population is 104,000 with over 27,000 prisons in Milwaukee county alone . In 1995 Milwaukee county had less than 1000 prisoners . They now have 27 times more prisoners under Walkers law. Triple per capita in any other state . Is Scott Walker moving Wisconsin forward making Wisconsin by far the largest prison state in the world per capita ? Walker has always used fussy numbers. Lets get to the truth. lets end these Rico act criminal rackettering regimes. This has caused thousands to form gangs to protect themselves for these perverts. This has made Wisconsin a dangerous place for many. They fear the police regimes. This is Wisconsin`s Holocost. The feds must step in and arrest every member of the state criminal regimes. Starting with ALL the judges like Prosser who have never judged just rubber stamped. If we had just one honest judge in Wisconsin this would end. Wisconsin is the police state thanks to ALEC and there puppets pretending to be justice systems. This your reason for budget problems in Wisconsin. Big spender big government Scott Walker. These policies have thousands in jail because of guilt by association because they are gang members. So if not for double standards Walker would be in a jail. How many of his associates are in jail that refused to snitch on their boss. UW Marquette did this study. Pray for justice in Wisconsin also has more. Google it. 392 NUNS signed Walkers recall petitions for reason. They are True Christians.This clearly shows you must leave Wisconsin to find a honest cop, judge, or a district attorney. They are all kingpins for ALEC. Any grand jury would convict every member of Wisconsin`s criminal justice regimes on this evidence alone. Honesty and justice is a myth in the just us system in Wisconsin all thanks to Scott Walker and David Prosser. ALEC advanced Prosser with a judgship and Walker with the Governor job. These evil people hurt millions of good people. A greedy few harming us all. The Hoover files show IBM, GM, FORD, KOCH and Prescott Bush financed and helped Hitler
