As far as I know there has been no change to this statute. CCW is not a felony in WI. It shouldn't even be a misdemeanor, but it is.
Last I heard the Dem's always kept the Personal Protection Act from reaching a vote. Senate President Fred Risser and Majority Leader Chuck Chvala block it every time. The good news is Risser is older than dirt won't stay in office forever and Chvala just had a past aide accuse him of running an election out of this office.
If anyone knows more about what's going on with the Personal Protection Act and this retired LEO carry provision, please let me know.
Also, I know there's a grass roots effort to get shall issue CHL's here in WI. If anyone has a link or contact info so I can get involved, post it here.
