Judicial activism strikes again. Since the Left can’t when legislative battles, they win in the courts. A Dane County judge issued an amended ruling to stop the law from coming in effect. If this ruling is ignored, the violators will face sanctions.

Dane County Circuit Judge Maryann Sumi made the amended ruling at 8:15 a.m. She has already issued an emergency order blocking Wisconsin’s secretary of state from publishing the law. Sumi called a hearing Tuesday to weigh District Attorney Ismael Ozanne’s lawsuit alleging Republican legislative leaders violated Wisconsin’s open meetings law during debate on the proposal.

This is disgusting. This Judge is rewarding the Democrats for fleeing the state Senate. Judicial activism is a threat to our Republic. Anytime the Left doesn’t like a law, they get courts to throw it out.
