Last Friday, Department of Safety and Professional Services Secretary Dawn Crim announced her departure from the agency that handles professional licensing. Crim in a joint press release with Gov. Tony Evers did not offer any reasons for her departure.
The State Senate confirmed Crim 29-2 in September last year.
Evers also announced he is appointing DSPS Assistant Deputy Secretary Dan Hereth to replace Crim. Hereth served as deputy district director for U.S. Rep. Gwen Moore, D-Milwaukee, starting in 2007 before joining DSPS in 2019.
