A pair of bills penned by Senator Andre Jacque of De Pere are one step closer to being signed into law. The Senate recently passed a legislation that would allow for charitable groups across Wisconsin to raise money for important causes through paddlewheel raffles, without unknowingly and unintentionally committing a felony-level offense.
That measure now heads to the State Assembly, while Jacque’s bill which aims to protect citizen’s rights to personal medical decisions and freedom to worship is on it’s way to Governor Tony Evers’ desk. Sen. Jacque introduced this legislation to ensure Public Health Officers and the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) cannot require vaccination or require a person to show proof of vaccination for COVID-19.
