Bipartisanship necessary for mining bill

Compromise is a word we don’t often hear in regard to the stubborn,  partisan Wisconsin legislature. And even when it occurs, it seems most  legislators are too proud to admit such maturity could ever breach the wall of juvenility that seems to surround our state Capitol. While the  controversial bill to streamline Wisconsin’s mining permit process  made large steps toward bipartisanship, division within the  legislature brought us back to the same old story of ego before  cooperation.
