.@SpeakerVos is putting the health of our country and our democracy at risk. He's also the President of @NCSLorg. Let's deal with one of those today: https://t.co/MR8sqUAtZs
It's time to get serious. We need to get to work and do our part to make sure our state is equipped to keep people safe and support the families, workers, and small businesses who need our help right now. #COVID19

BREAKING: Wisconsin Republicans are drafting a proposal aimed at providing coronavirus relief that also curbs @GovEvers' power and allows the Finance Committee to make spending cuts without his input
Evers tells the Journal Sentinel he would likely veto the bill if it stays
@CR500CR500CR@benwikler Vos needs to resign, but he’s more likely to do that if @NCSLorg staff encourage him so it’s important that NCSL hears directly from its members
Robin Vos’ gross arrogance and blatant partisanship render him unfit to continue to operate as the President of the nonpartisan NCSL. Vos has become a complete embarrassment to the great state of Wisconsin.

Robin Vos - Speaker of the WI State Assembly & President of the National Conference of State Legislatures.
Please urge your local legislature today to tell NCSL Robin Vos doesn't represent their consituents or their values, & should be removed from NCSL. https://t.co/4alWFTaZyF
Although I remain deeply concerned about the public health implications of voting in-person today, I am overwhelmed by the bravery, resilience, and heroism of those who are defending our democracy by showing up to vote, working the polls, and reporting on this election.
Anyone in the country with a State Rep can call your local legislator and ask her or him to call me n Vos to resign as president of the National Council of State Legislatures. Here’s how to do that. https://t.co/kL9jZUgFh1
Internet, meet Robin Vos, Republican speaker of the Wisconsin state assembly, who rejected postponing the election and refused to mail ballots to voters. Can you help him understand how to yesterday’s atrocity was the fault of the GOP?
IMPORTANT - every1 everywhere can help reduce @SpeakerVos power by contacting their state legislators today. He may be able to screw us Wisconsinites, but don't fool urselves thinking that he is not influencing ur state legislatures too. Help remove this scourge on OUR democracy
Here's @SpeakerVos. He put voters’ health & lives at risk by refusing to postpone the election.
He is wearing #PPE that frontline health care workers need to protect themselves & save lives. Wisconsin still doesn't have what we need because @realDonaldTrump hasn't delivered it.
NEW: In setting today's deadline, SCOTUS suggested there was no reason to believe Wisconsin voters would receive requested absentee ballots later than normal.
But it was easy to find Wisconsinites who never received ballots requested weeks ago. https://t.co/o4Nfzx1g1q
Glass slightly full: Milwaukee turnout up 9% vs spring 2019.
Glass mostly empty: Milwaukee turnout down 59% vs spring 2016.
Size of glass unclear: we don't know what turnout looked like in rest of state yet, nor how many who wanted to vote were disenfranchised.
