Today, the Wisconsin State Assembly debates SB-403:
"This bill creates a licensing system under which an individual is permitted to carry a concealed weapon under certain circumstances. The bill also makes certain changes in Wisconsin law to account for a federal law that requires the state to permit an individual who works as or who has retired from working as a federal, state, tribal, or local law enforcement officer in Wisconsin or in any other state to carry a concealed firearm under certain circumstances. In addition, the bill changes the law relating to background checks for handgun purchases to require the Department of Justice (DOJ) to determine whether a person seeking to purchase a handgun has been subject to an order or finding regarding his or her mental health that makes the purchase unlawful."

I won't be available most of the day, so if someone could bump this thread when the action starts, I'd appreciate it.

I've got the audio for the Assembly going but nothing there yet. Assuming the Assembly isn't in session yet. If I'm wrong, please let me know.

"The Assembly stands informal." :o\ Assuming that means they're taking a break.
If I understood them correctly, our bill will be up shortly after they resume. But I could be very wrong on that.

We've all heard of the similarity between watching laws and sausages being made, all I know for sure is that if my butcher took this long to make a sausage then Id be afraid of what hes slipping in the grinder...

No kidding. My brother called and told me that there's something some of the critical votes want in this bill but he couldn't remember what. But it didn't sound hopeful if it wasn't included.
I told a look for info here and found this link from yesterday: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1538624/posts
Makes me sick.

If I heard correct, via the live audio feed:
"The Rose committee will meet in the parlor at 8:45."
Whatever that means.
