Glenn, I wanted to update you on the budget since you took the time to attend our recent Zablocki townhall meeting on June 6th and raised these concerns. I was able to convience our Senate Democratic Caucus last night to get Joint & Severalibilty, undocumented immigrants from getting driver licences, and in-state tuition for the children of undocuments immigrants all removed from the Senate version of the state budget.
Most important the Senate Democratic Caucus actually heard my pleas for mandatory auto insurance in Wisconsin, leaving only New Hampshire as the last state not to require financial responsility. I know a lot more work has to be done, but this is a good start.
Good night Glenn! It's 4am- time for me to get to bed.
Best wishes- Tim Carpenter

Sometimes this state's penchant for being "different" really sux.
