State law gave the NRB this authority from 1954 to 1995. During that 47 year period, the DNR Secretary changed only three times and every appointee came to the job with many years of WDNR management experience. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"; color:black'>Since 1995, the WDNR Secretary has been appointed by the Governor and serves as part of the Governors cabinet (Wis. Statute 15.05). Under the political appointment structure, the WDNR Secretary post has turned over three times since 2001, and the last two appointees came from outside the agency. Other key administrative positions also turn over with each new Secretary, increasing the experience gap. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"; color:black'>Wisconsin Wetlands Association supports AB 138 because we believe that effective long term natural resources management requires consistency in leadership and organizational priorities. We also believe AB 138 will protect the role of science, and minimize the potential for political influence, in natural resources decision making. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"; color:black'>We are not alone in our support of AB 138. In fact, close to 300 organizations have endorsed the bill and thousands of Wisconsin citizens have called, written, or visited their legislators asking them to pass it. And the legislators listened. The bill arrived on the Governors desk with the support of 65 (of 99) state Representatives and 22 (of 33) state Senators. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"; color:black'>Despite the overwhelming support, the Governor vetoed the bill. A vetoed bill can become law, but it requires a two-thirds vote in each house to override the veto (66 votes in the Assembly, 22 in the Senate). There are no guarantees that legislators who supported the bill previously wont change their minds or skip the vote entirely. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"; color:black'>Your voice is needed one last time to help ensure our representatives vote to override the Governors veto of AB 138.
