Assembly leader may resign due to sexual harassment accusations (WI)

Source: 58 NEWS

Republican Majority Leader Bill Kramer has reportedly been accused of sexual harassment.
Sources confirm to the Associated Press that Kramer is now being asked to resign.

We went to Kramer's home in Waukesha to try and get his side of the story and we were told he has no comment at this time.

sold investments

did not buy anything from him but chatted with him from time to time

he seemed decent enough and i was surprised at what a turd he turned out to be.

last time i talked to him i told him straight out i would not buy from someone who was actively involved in making
my life worse.

we disagreed and said good bye

getting elected was not good for him
