WI Senate Committee Approves Sand Mining Sweetheart Bill

Word is that a GOP-controlled State Senate committee has approved an industry-friendly bill limiting local sand mine controls, so a floor vote could happen any day.

Update: Confirmation.

A companion bill could be pushed through the GOP-dominated Assembly, though opposition from the credible Towns association could keep this iteration on a back burner as this session winds down.

Some background, here.

All one has to do is look at who is financing "TACONITE" Tommy and know that his bills do not serve the public interests only his pocket book and his donors desires.
