MADISON, WI (WTAQ-WRN) – Assembly Speaker Robin Vos says he may support some changes to Wisconsin’s law criminalizing abortion.
That law currently has no exceptions for victims of rape or incest, and Governor Tony Evers wants it repealed.
Vos said sending a bill to Evers containing those exceptions would test the governor’s willingness to compromise.
“When Tony Evers said he wouldn’t even consider making exceptions for rape and incest because he wants radically, you know up until birth abortion laws, well let’s see if we put something in front of him perhaps and see if he really believes that, or if we can have a more realistic answer like we have on other things.”
Vos also said it may be possible to find compromise on the state’s estimated 4-point-3 billion dollar budget surplus, with most going back to taxpayers and some to local governments to support police.
