Register and/or speak up Tuesday, Oct. 20!
You know the social justice warriors like the guy pictured below will pack the Common Council 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, October 20 to support Madison’s wayward police monitor. They’re actually busing people to the Council. (Call security!)
Counter their nonsense. Access the meeting page here to register or speak on-line via Zoom. The “Register to Speak” form will ask for agenda item. It is 79 95140. Register in support of this measure to fire the monitor. Do it today! [UPDATE: links should work now.]
Seven alders have signed on to a measure to “terminate the appointment of the interim independent police monitor effective immediately.” The alders are Alders Alder Will Ochowicz, Tag Evers, Regina M. Vidaver, Derek Field, Joann Pritchett, Sabrina Madison, and Yannette Figueroa Cole, the latter two the current and past presidents of the Common Council.
The resolution states:
The actions of Interim Monitor Glass in failing to complete essential duties of the position constitute a breach of contract with the City and that it is necessary to terminate the extension of her provisional appointment in order to reestablish the City’s progress towards effective civilian oversight of the Madison Police Department.
[UPDATE:] Aeiramique’s defenders, Alds. Carmella Glenn and Julia Matthews, may introduce a resolution allowing the Police Civilian Oversight Board to hire an attorney for up to $40,000 to fight the Council!
Alders make the case for firing the IPM
District 13 Alder Tag Evers: “Madison needs independent police oversight, but what we have now is not working.”
District 5 Alder Vidaver: “To preserve civilian oversight in Madison, Interim Monitor Glass must go.”
District 14 Alder Lieberman: “The chief reason for my vote is the interim Police Monitor’s failure to facilitate the hiring of a permanent Monitor to oversee the OIM.”
District 15 Alder Martinez-Rutherford: “As a managerial employee of the City of Madison, Monitor Glass has a duty to adhere to our Administrative Procedure Memorandums. The APMs are set up as a code of conduct and to provide procedural guidance for any positions that are paid for by taxpayer money. The IM’s refusal to adhere to them sets a disturbing precedent.”
District 2 Alder Ochowicz: “Trust is low between the Common Council, the PCOB, and the public.”
District 10 Alder Figueroa-Cole: “The Council created the ordinances establishing this office. … The Council has the authority to amend or repeal those ordinances.”
The City of Madison’s 10-02-26 employment review of Aeiramique Glass from the city attorney “identify concerns with the actions of the Interim Independent Monitor.”
Blaska’s Bottom Line: That is putting it mildly!

Opposition link isn’t working, Dave.
Same here. Encountered a City of Madison error message.
The Loony Left want teens under the age of majority to vote and here you show Rad Abolitionist can’t even pull off being taken seriously as an adult! Ironic he calls the Council a Kangaroo Council when those who it is composed of are the ones who spawn freaks like RAD.
