Listen to this weekend’s "Mining for John Doe" Battleground Wisconsin Podcast
Our panel is joined by Wisconsin League of Conservation Voters Executive Director, Kerry Schumann to tackle the proposed gutting of mining laws in Wisconsin by the GOP. We also discuss the latest scandalous details in the Joe Doe investigation of Scott Walker's County Executive office, right wing hysteria over the validity of recall petitions, and more.
