Kaufert, Owens, & a WI Death Penalty

From the Milwaukee JS on 3/28/07 regarding the reintroduction of the death penalty in Wisconsin:

"Republican Sen. Alan Lasee (R-DePere), who as president of the Senate over the last two years made sure the advisory vote was on the Nov. 7 ballot, is the chief Senate sponsor of the bill; the Assembly lead sponsor is Rep. Dean Kaufert (R-Neenah)."

It seems there is a strong push for death up here in Winnebago: Introduced by Senators A. Lasee and Roessler; cosponsored by Representatives Kaufert, F. Lasee, LeMahieu, Owens and Gunderson.

The killing would take place by lethal injection (see here too).

See the bill here.
