Forgive my language, but I dont care about being senatorial anymore. The time for platitudes is over. This is bullshit. The role of police is to protect life first, property second. Last night in Madison, Madison police did neither.

An innocent bystander, a state senator who has largely stood with the BLM movement, was attacked for watching and taking a picture. I am praying Tim will be okay. This isnt about protesting anymore. This is about mindless violence and destruction.

Madison city officials are letting it happen. Someone in Madison city government should be held accountable. . Arrests need to be made. It is clear Madison is incapable of protecting either life or property.Whether that is because of inability or incompetent leadership is unknown

Governor Evers MUST step up and call out the National Guard and send the message that violence WILL NOT be tolerated. Let Madison police protect life if they are still allowed. The National Guard can protect state property.

I also call on Governor Evers to work with the Legislature and Supreme Court to ensure that the Capitol will be safe for everyone who works in the building when it reopens in July. Because what occurred last night cannot occur again  and definitely not in the building

So, I guess Act 10 (still law) wasn't so bad for teachers after all? https://t.co/4vWzffhjyf
