Think twice before voting for SB179!

The Issue

The last tenant/lanldord bill that passed (2012 Wis Act 143) was riddled with mistakes.  SB179 has been similarly rushed through the process without public comment and discussion; voting by paper ballot in committee without discussion on various amendments.  Will SB179 end with the same results as the last bill?  What unintended unexplored consequences await landlords and tenants in Wisconsin?  Do you know?  Think twice before voting on this measure!  Here are all the Madison laws it will eliminate.  http://tenantresourcecenter.org/pc/documents/LRB1931_Madison.pdf  And all the state laws it will change.  http://tenantresourcecenter.org/pc/documents/SB179_wAmendments.pdf
