From the Clements Fishing Barge:
It would seem that the Senator from Racine, Senator Wanggaard is not going to even let the Railroad crossing bill come up for a vote. I talked with Representative Neirson's office today and they heard that he isn't going to move on it at all. This is how our political system works. One man, one politician has the power to "derail" a bill that had overwhelming support in the Assembly. He won't even LET it come to a vote in his committee so it can go to the senate floor, why, I don't know. I guess it could be because it might actually pass on the senate floor, it might be because the railroad and it's lobbyist are more important that the sportsman in this state and the ones who bring their money to this state. One person told me his office isn't even taking any calls on this issue. I am a little bit angry with politics right now, more so than I was before. If this is the process, then its broken and needs fixing. If this bothers you, go ahead and call his office and let him know. Senator Wanggaard 608-266-1832, especially if you are from Racine all the way to the Illinois border. I am disappointed for a lot of ice fishermen, bank fishermen, hunters, trappers, hikers and farmers in this state. Next session we will have to get organized much better than this. Maybe I will have to become a lobbyist for sportsman...
According to the Crawford County Independent, February 25, 2016, a Wisconsin DNR memo states: "This might well be the largest loss of public access to public waters in the history of the state."
