Assembly to take up civil service overhaul
The state Assembly will vote today on the GOP plan to overhaul the civil service system and eliminating the state treasurer's office.
The Senate, however, has put off its planned meeting today to give Republicans more time to discuss the GAB and campaign finance legislation.
Also on the Assembly agenda are:
*AB 142, which would lift the prohibition on switchblades and prohibit local governments from placing additional restrictions on carrying them.
*AB 239, which would allow parents to opt students out of certain statewide exams.
*AB 394, which would give lawmakers oversight of changes to the public employee group health insurance program.
*And SB 233, which would divvy up among Brown County communities the excess sales tax revenue collected for the renovation of Lambeau Field.

A spokeswoman for Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald, R-Juneau, said the chamber is looking at coming in next week, the final meeting period until Jan. 12.
But instead of being on the floor today, Senate Republicans will instead caucus on the GAB and campaign finance bills.
