Judge Sumi halts progress of Wisc. Gov. Walker’s collective bargaining bill (see video)


From ABC WKOW.com in Madison:

Tony Galli reports that on Friday, the same day Democrats announced success in their recall efforts, Dane County Judge Maryann Sumi continued to temporarily halt the progress of Governor Walker's controversial collective bargaining bill.

Sumi heard testimony about the hastily convened legislative conference committee that preceded the Senate's passage of the bill last month.

Sumi said the legislative immunity of several lawmaker defendants, including Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald needs to be addressed to allow a continued hearing on whether the bill will still be held in limbo.
