Potential New Laws

Governor Jim Doyle has until this Thursday to sign bills the legislature has passed into law, or those bills become law without his signature. His other alternative is to veto the bills. Included in the bills awaiting his pen, one that would allow for the sale of raw milk and one that regulates the payday lending industry in Wisconsin. The wait on the raw milk bill has allowed for more public rallying on the issue. In fact, a rally to urge the governor to sign the bill is set for noon today, 5/18, in Madison.
