Democratic state Rep. Jimmy Anderson, center, who is paralyzed and uses a wheelchair, says it is "offensive," "disappointing" and "frustrating" that Republicans did not consult with him before proposing ways to accommodate his needs, Tuesday, Oct. 8, 2019, in Madison, Wis. Republicans who control the Wisconsin Assembly intend to change their rules to allow a paralyzed Democratic lawmaker to phone into committee meetings he can't attend in person. Anderson, surrounded by Democratic colleagues, told reporters at the state Capitol that Republicans also should have spoken with a disability rights attorney before crafting the proposals.
