Dear Chief Clerk Scocos:
This letter is to alert you to a discrepancy in a co-sponsorship on two bills that I have recently introduced, Assembly Bills 829 and 834.
The staff of Representative Mark Pocan contacted my staff with a request to be signed on to Assembly Bill 829. Representative Pocan's name was inadvertently left off this bill, and accidentally signed on to Assembly Bill 834, which Representative Pocan does not wish to co-sponsor.
I am writing to let you know that I am aware of this discrepancy, and support any actions your office might take to correct this situation.
Should you have any questions, feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Steve Wieckert
State Representative
