Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau

Currently, the Elections Board consists of nine members. The governor appoints all of the members of the Elections Board, without confirmation by the senate, to serve for two-year terms as follows: one member is selected by the governor and one member each is designated by the chief justice of the Supreme Court, the speaker of the assembly, the senate majority leader, the minority leader in each house of the legislature, and the chief officer of each political party qualifying for a separate ballot at the September primary whose candidate for governor at the most recent gubernatorial election received at least 10 percent of the vote (currently, the Republican, Democratic, and Libertarian parties).

Currently, the Ethics Board consists of six members. Members of the Ethics Board are nominated by the governor, and with the advice and consent of the senate appointed, to serve for staggered six-year terms. All members must be U.S. citizens and residents of this state, and no member may hold any other office or employment in the government of this state or any political subdivision thereof or in any state department. In addition, no member, for one year immediately prior to the date of appointment, may have been, and no member, while serving on the Ethics Board, may become, a member of a political party, an officer or member of a committee in any partisan political club or organization, or a candidate for any partisan office.

This substitute amendment abolishes both boards and replaces them with a Government Accountability Board. Under the substitute amendment, the board is composed of seven members serving for staggered four-year terms. Four members of the board must have prosecutorial experience. One member of the board is a retired judge of a court of record in this state. All of the members are nominated by the governor and appointed with the advice and consent of the assembly and senate. Each of the members must be appointed from nominations submitted by a Government Accountability Candidate Committee, which consists of one court of appeals judge from each of the court of appeals districts. The judges are chosen by lot by the chief justice of the supreme court in the presence of the other justices. A unanimous vote of the committee is required to nominate a candidate. No member of the Government Accountability Board may hold another position that is subject to the code of ethics for state public officials or the code of ethics for local public officials. No member, for one year immediately prior to the date of appointment, may have been, and no member while serving on the board may become, a member of a political party, an officer or member of a committee in any partisan political club or organization, a candidate for any partisan office or an officer or employee of a registrant under the campaign finance law. No member may be a lobbyist or an employee of a principal (person who employs a lobbyist).

The substitute amendment creates an Enforcement Division within the Government Accountability Board. The Enforcement Division is headed by an administrator who is appointed by the executive director of the board outside the classified service for a term of not less than four years nor more than six years, expiring on September 1 of an odd-numbered year. The administrator may not be removed during his or her term except for cause.

The substitute amendment also permits the executive director to appoint up to two other division administrators outside the classified service but the substitute amendment does not authorize any new positions for the administrators. The substitute amendment transfers all members of the existing staffs of the Elections Board and Ethics Board and their positions to the Government Accountability Board. Under the substitute amendment, the staff members who have civil service rights retain those rights. The substitute amendment does not provide any funding for continued employment of the staff members, however.

The Enforcement Division is empowered to investigate violations and bring civil and criminal actions to enforce the elections, ethics, and lobbying regulation laws. Under current law, the Elections Board and Ethics Board share civil enforcement authority with district attorneys and in some cases with county boards of election commissioners, and with the attorney general; and the district attorneys, and in some cases the attorney general, exercise criminal enforcement authority. Under the substitute amendment, the Enforcement Division has independent authority to investigate violations of the elections, ethics, and lobbying regulation laws and to prosecute civil or criminal violations without the consent of the Government Accountability Board, except that the division must obtain the concurrence of the board before issuing a subpoena or obtaining a search warrant. The substitute amendment permits the Enforcement Division to request the board to appoint special counsel to investigate or prosecute violations of the law. Under the substitute amendment, the board may retain special counsel to act as an investigator in any matter. The administrator of the Enforcement Division may also investigate any matter without retention of an investigator. An investigator or the administrator must report to the board concerning an investigation at least once every 90 days, after which the investigation may continue unless the board votes to terminate it. The substitute amendment also permits the Enforcement Division to request investigatory and prosecutorial assistance from the Department of Justice and directs the Department of Justice to provide such assistance upon request. Under the substitute amendment, the Enforcement Division is bound by applicable laws, rules, formal opinions, and actions of the board, except that the division may nonacquiesce in any formal opinion of the board by publishing a notice of nonacquiescence in the Wisconsin Administrative Register. Thereafter, the division is not bound by that opinion. The substitute amendment directs the Government Accountability Board and the district attorneys to share investigatory information concerning possible violations of the elections, ethics, and lobbying regulation laws and accords precedence to the board in conducting investigations and prosecutions. If a district attorney refers to the board a matter concerning a possible criminal violation of the elections, ethics, or lobbying regulation laws by a state official and the board determines not to commence a criminal prosecution, the substitute amendment directs the board to report to the district attorney within 30 days of the referral specifying the reasons why it will not commence a prosecution.

The substitute amendment directs a district attorney to notify the Government Accountability Board before commencing a criminal prosecution concerning any violation of the elections, ethics, or lobbying regulation laws. If the board notifies the district attorney that it will not commence a criminal prosecution, or the board does not commence a criminal prosecution within 30 days after receiving the notice, the district attorney may commence the prosecution.

The substitute amendment provides that if a district attorney opens an investigation of a possible criminal violation of the elections, ethics, or lobbying regulation laws, the district attorney must report to the Government Accountability Board concerning the status of the investigation no later than the end of each 90-day period until the investigation is concluded. Similarly, under the substitute amendment, if a district attorney commences a criminal prosecution for a violation of the elections, ethics, or lobbying regulation laws, the district attorney must report to the board concerning the status of the prosecution no later than the end of each 180-day period until the prosecution is concluded. Within 30 days after receiving any report, the substitute amendment permits the board to direct the district attorney to close the investigation or to terminate the prosecution, and the district attorney must do so.

Currently, the Elections and Ethics boards have sum certain appropriations derived from state general purpose revenue. In addition, both boards finance some of their operations with program revenue. This substitute amendment repeals all appropriations to both boards and does not make any appropriations to the Government Accountability Board. Under the substitute amendment, the Government Accountability Board will be unable to operate unless funding is provided for the board by other legislation. The substitute amendment requires the board to forward the division's budget requests to the Department of Administration without change, except as concurred in by the division.

Under the substitute amendment, any person may file a sworn complaint with the division alleging a violation of the elections, ethics, or lobbying regulation laws. The division must investigate the complaint unless the division finds the complaint to be without merit. The substitute amendment also permits the division to investigate any violation of the elections, ethics, or lobbying regulation laws on its own initiative or upon direction of the board. The division may order an election official or private person to act in conformity with the elections, ethics, or lobbying regulation laws or rules of the board, and may impose a forfeiture (civil monetary penalty) for a violation. The decision of the division may be appealed to the board or may be appealed directly to circuit court. In deciding an appeal, the board is not bound by any findings of fact or conclusions of law made by the division with respect to the matter. If the decision of the division is not appealed or if the board does not modify or reverse a decision of the division after hearing an appeal, the decision of the division becomes the decision of the board. Any decision of the board is also subject to judicial review in circuit court. If the board modifies or reverses an action of the division, the division may also seek judicial review of the board's decision. The procedure does not apply to any alleged violation of the elections, ethics, or lobbying regulation laws by the board or division, nor to any matter arising in connection with a recount.

Currently, a defendant in a criminal trial is tried in the county where the the defendant's crime is alleged to have been committed, except that the defendant may request the judge to move the trial to another county and the judge may grant the request if the judge believes that an impartial trial cannot be had unless the trial is moved. This substitute amendment provides that if the defendant in a criminal trial for a violation of the elections, ethics, or lobbying regulation laws is a resident of this state, the trial shall be held in circuit court for the county where the defendant resides, subject to the current exception.

Currently, opinions of the Elections Board are open to public inspection, but opinions of the Ethics Board, with limited exceptions, are closed to public inspection. However, the Ethics Board publishes summaries of its opinions without divulging information that could reveal the identity of the requester. This substitute amendment makes all opinions issued by the Government Accountability Board closed to public inspection, subject to the current exceptions for opinions issued by the Ethics Board.

The substitute amendment provides for the substitute amendment to become law on January 1, 2007, after which date the members of the Government Accountability Board may be appointed and take office. However, the existing Elections Board and Ethics Board continue in operation until June 1, 2007, subject to appropriation of money for continued operation of the boards by other legislation. Under the substitute amendment, the Government Accountability Board may not exercise administrative or enforcement authority until June 1, 2007. The substitute amendment also provides that the director of the Legislative Council Staff shall serve as executive director of the Government Accountability Board, without additional compensation, until the initial executive director of the Government Accountability Board is appointed and qualified, and may exercise all of the functions of the executive director of the Government Accountability Board, the enforcement division, and the administrator of the enforcement division.

Currently, state boards may meet in closed session to discuss the investigation of charges against specific persons. This substitute amendment provides specifically that the Government Accountability Board may meet in closed session to deliberate concerning any investigation under the board's jurisdiction.

Currently, for state employees, health insurance premiums are generally paid two months prior to the time that the employees actually receive the coverage. A state employee who terminates state employment or who takes a leave of absence therefore receives paid health insurance coverage for at least two months after his or her date of separation from employment. Currently, most of the premium cost for state employee health care coverage the state pays.

This bill provides that any state employee who takes a leave of absence may not receive during the leave of absence any health insurance coverage, the premiums of which are paid in whole or in part by the state, if during any part of the leave of absence the employee is a candidate for a partisan political office or a nonpartisan state elected office or the employee is employed by a political party, candidate, or political committee.
