And maybe we can have a referendum in Wisconsin on it or, you know, the legislature can do something. Well, the legislature is not going to do anything with still a solid Republican majority in both houses. And There is no such thing as a direct action referendum in Wisconsin. It is not permitted under Wisconsin law. Governor Evers has proposed twice now that Wisconsin Lobby changed to allow such referenda, and the Republican majority in the legislature has no interest in taking it up because they would rather hold on to the reins of power that they currently exercise. (21:26–21:34)
