Politics as Usual?

State Representative Jeff Wood goes before a legislative committee Wednesday... a committee that is considering whether to expel the independent who represents a northwestern Wisconsin district.

Wood has been charged three times for driving under the influence. The committee will hold a public hearing on the matter of expulsion and may also consider a lesser penalty of reprimand. Wood says he should not be treated differently than the many other lawmakers charged with crimes over the last 70 years who were not disciplined by the legislature.
