Wisconsin lawmakers from both parties are pushing Governor Tony Evers to fire the staff member who made a clandestine recording of a private telephone meeting with Republican legislative leaders.
When asked Thursday, Evers didn’t say what action might be taken. Audio of the call was released when the Associated Press made an open records request.
Assembly Speaker Robin Vos and Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald – both Republicans – say the person should be fired. Democratic State Representative Jonathon Brostoff agrees.
So far, the staff member hasn’t been identified.
