Conservatively Speaking

State Senator Mary Lazich (R-New Berlin) represents parts of four counties: Milwaukee, Waukesha, Racine, and Walworth. Her Senate District 28 includes New Berlin, Franklin, Greendale, Hales Corners, Muskego, Waterford, Big Bend, the town of Vernon and parts of Greenfield, East Troy, and Mukwonago. Senator Lazich has been in the Legislature for more than a decade. She considers herself a tireless crusader for lower taxes, reduced spending and smaller government.

Local sex offender ordinances survive

Legislation


Great news at the end of the general legislative session. Proceedings conclude without final action on legislation that would have repealed over 100 local ordinances around Wisconsin that restrict the residences and whereabouts of released sex offenders.

The legislation is dead and the local ordinances remain in effect.

I commend the many concerned officials and citizens that participated in the process to save these important local ordinances. If you drove to Madison to testify or register in opposition to the legislation, telephoned or e-mailed legislative offices, I thank you very much for your efforts to maintain local control and to protect families and children.
