SCOWIS weighs whether to allow governor to trump state schools superintendent's policies
MADISON — The state Supreme Court wrestled Wednesday, April 10 with whether to let the governor trump the state schools superintendent's policies, a move that would hand the governor de facto control of Wisconsin schools and undo a ruling the justices handed down two years ago establishing the superintendent's independence.The Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty, a conservative law firm, filed a lawsuit in 2017 alleging that a new Republican-authored law requiring state agencies to obtain the governor's permission before writing rules, regulations and policies applies to the superintendent.
