Wisconsin hearing erupts over beef on immigration bill
A recent Wisconsin state Senate debate on an immigration bill erupted when the panel’s top Democrat lunged at the chairman’s gavel, calling Republicans "cowards" and questioning their faith.
Wisconsin State Senate State and Federal Affairs Committee Chairman Chris Kapenga, R-Oconomowoc, told Fox News Digital the video of the episode is important because it shows how quickly discourse can spiral when lawmakers abandon decorum.
The flashpoint came as ranking member Tim Carpenter, D-Milwaukee, opposed legislation that would bar public funds from paying for health care for illegal immigrants. Carpenter highlighted a story told moments prior by state Sen. Chris Larson, D-Milwaukee, about a migrant woman who was reportedly initially lawfully present, but later deported and supposedly died after not being able to refill her prescription medication after her private insurance lapsed.
