MADISON, WI (METRO) – The top Republican in the Wisconsin Assembly is not hiding his feelings about the state’s new superintendent.
Assembly Speaker Robin Vos on Tuesday promised that he will not send any more money to the ‘unaccountable’ bureaucracy at the state’s Department of Public Instruction now that Jill Underly has been elected superintendent.
Vos said Underly’s election shows that teachers’ unions in the state own DPI.
Underly easily won Tuesday’s race, thanks in part to almost a million-dollars in outside political help from Democratic groups and the teachers’ union.
Underly yesterday said she wants to work for all kids in the state, regardless of how their parents voted.
