stock here: Gov Evers is on a roll….what do they “have” on this creep, or is he willingly going along with this BS?
The story from the Maciver Institute was confusing. A-Eye cleared it up for me.
Supreme Court Case Could Bring Down Wisconsin’s Entire Bureaucracy
This situation in Wisconsin boils down to a power struggle between Governor Tony Evers and the state legislature over who gets to write and approve regulations. Here’s a simplified breakdown of what’s happening:
What’s the Issue?
Normally, lawmakers make broad laws and let government agencies (the bureaucracy) write the detailed rules on how those laws work.
Before those rules take effect, the legislature reviews and approves them—a system that’s been in place for 70 years.
Evers argues that this process violates separation of powers—saying only the governor’s agencies should decide the rules, without legislative approval.
Why Does This Matter?
If Evers wins the lawsuit, bureaucratic agencies would be able to create and enforce rules without oversight from elected lawmakers.
If the legislature can’t approve agency rules anymore, they will have to change how they write laws—spelling out every little detail instead of leaving things open-ended.
The legislature may also cut funding to state agencies that enforce regulations, potentially crippling the bureaucracy.
What Could Happen?
If the Wisconsin Supreme Court sides with Evers, state agencies will gain massive power, and lawmakers will lose control over rule-making.
If the court sides with the legislature, it could wipe out the entire bureaucratic rule-making system, forcing lawmakers to take direct control over every regulation.
Why Is This Explosive?
The entire state bureaucracy could collapse if courts decide that the current system is unconstitutional.
This would force Wisconsin to completely rethink how laws and regulations are created.
It could also set a precedent for other states and even the federal government, where unelected bureaucrats have been making rules for decades.
Bottom Line
Evers’ lawsuit could radically change how Wisconsin’s government works—either giving him and state agencies more control or forcing lawmakers to dismantle the entire bureaucratic rule-making system. The outcome could shake up the state’s entire government structure and budgeting process.
