Madison…Over the last couple weeks, former Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Michael Gableman has been releasing blatant falsehoods that Speaker Robin Vos (R – Rochester) has never wanted a real investigation into the 2020 election. Today Speaker Vos, after considering comments from many members of the Republican Assembly caucus, closed the Office of the Special Counsel.
Representative Kevin Petersen (R-Waupaca) stated: “I support the Speaker’s move to close the Office of the Special Council. This past session, along with my Assembly colleagues, I voted for a series of bills that would have addressed concerns that were uncovered by both the Office of the Special Council and the non-partisan Legislative Audit Bureau. Unfortunately, Governor Evers vetoed them. In the next session, I will continue fighting for election integrity and fair elections.”
