Wisconsin Judge Overseeing Act 10 Lawsuit Signed Walker Recall Petition

Dane County Circuit Judge Jacob Frost, who is overseeing a lawsuit challenging Wisconsin's law that bans nearly all collective bargaining for public workers, appears to have signed a 2011 petition to recall then-Gov. Scott Walker. The revelation has sparked debate over whether Frost should recuse himself from the case. The law, known as Act 10, was a defining issue of Walker's tenure and led to a failed recall attempt in 2012. The case is expected to reach the Wisconsin Supreme Court.
