9-14-23 wisconsin assembly speaker asks former state supreme court justices to review impeachment

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin’s Republican Assembly leader says he’s created a panel to investigate the criteria for impeachment against a liberal state Supreme Court justice. The step against Justice Janet Protasiewicz would be unprecedented. She’s being targeted over comments she made during her winning campaign about redistricting and donations from the state Democratic Party. The donations total nearly $10 million. The impeachment criteria panel being created by Assembly Speaker Robin Vos will consist of three former Wisconsin Supreme Court justices.  Vos tells The Associated Press they won’t be paid and he expects their work to be complete within weeks.
