Published | Video Starts at 43:21

It was just, did Doug La Follette enact the law properly? And the state Supreme Court said he did. That's all I did. As a justice, would you recuse yourself from this current case? If the case has to do with whether it was properly enacted, yes. If it has to do with the merits, there's no basis for me to do so whatsoever. Judge Taylor, you've been outspoken in your opposition to Act 10. As a democratic state lawmaker, do you believe that Act 10 is unconstitutional and would you recuse yourself? (43:21–43:29)

CLAIM

Asserts that she would recuse herself from cases about the enactment process of Act 10, but not its merits.
