(MADISON) A legislative panel studying affirmative action shot down a proposed constitutional amendment Monday (6/4) night that would have ended the practice in Wisconsin.
The special committee on affirmative action broke out over and over again into all-out cacophony. Most of the yelling had to do with process. Opponents of affirmative action accused GOP Senator and Committee Chair Glenn Grothman (R-West Bend) of stifling debate in an effort to ram through his own agenda. Grothman accused them of some kind of filibuster.
