Former Sec. Designee Pfaff Stays on Evers Administration

Zac Schultz:

Now for an update on former DATCP Secretary-designee Brad Pfaff. Just a few days after Senate Republicans voted down his confirmation, Pfaff found a landing spot back in the Evers’ administration. He’s now the director of business and rural development at the Department of Administration. He will not need Senate confirmation in his new position. However, the fallout from the Pfaff vote is not over. Afterwards, Governor Evers meet with DATCP employees and according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Evers called Republican Senators amoral and stupid and told employees not to let the bastards impede their work. Evers later clarified he does not think Republican Senators are bastards.
