Wisconsin Manufacturers and Commerce Returning the Favor for Prosser’s Recusal Vote

Prosser 2009 Vote Allows Him to Decide Cases for WMC, Even After This Kind of Spending

Madison – Wisconsin Manufacturers and Commerce, which spent $5 million to elect scandalplagued
Annette Ziegler and ethically-challenged Mike Gableman, is taking to airwaves on
behalf of current Justice David Prosser, launching a smear attack against his opponent. Prosser
cast the deciding vote to adopt rules in 2009, written part by WMC, that says campaign
contributions and independent spending by groups like WMC do not require justices recusing

Director. “Predictably, Wisconsin Manufacturers and Commerce is returning the favor by
smearing Prosser’s opponent.”

In 2009, Prosser helped approve word-for-word language written by WMC and the Wisconsin
Realtors Association regarding recusals. The decision was roundly criticized across the
ideological spectrum as an assault on an independent judiciary....
