Kevin A. Carr, Secretary
Wisconsin Department of Corrections

Madison, WI 53705
Dear Secretary Carr:
On February 11th, I sent you a letter appointing three members to the Juvenile Corrections Grant Committee. My letter inadvertently stated that:
“…I am appointing the following representatives to the Juvenile Corrections Grant Committee and the Juvenile Corrections Study Committee…”
Including both committees was an error; I am only appointing the three named representatives to the Juvenile Corrections Grant Committee. My previous appointments to the Juvenile Corrections Study Committee will remain unchanged.
I apologize for any confusion. Please reach out to my office with any questions.
Sincerely,
Robin J. Vos
Assembly Speaker
