A local state representative wants to see a fellow assemblyman expelled from the legislature.

Republican Steve Nass of Whitewater is introducing a resolution to force the formation of an ethics committee to investigate Jeff Wood, following his fourth arrest for driving under the influence.

Nass has forwarded a resolution to Assembly Speaker Mike Sheridan of Janesville, who will be expected to form the committee, which will offer a recommendation to the full assembly.
