Wisconsin: After Threat of Legal Action, Governor’s Office Fulfills Open Records Request

http://pocanforcongress.com/2014/08/27/after-threat-of-legal-action-governors-office-fulfills-open-records-request/

Madison, WI — After 74 days, the Department of Administration has finally turned over more than 500 pages of records detailing Governor Walker’s travel. However, the request for the Governor’s campaign travel remains unanswered. The request went unfulfilled for 50 business days, five-times past the legally advised time period. Stay tuned for more as we review Governor Walker’s records.

“Unfortunately, it took the threat of legal action for Governor Walker to take this request seriously,” said Mark Pocan. “This episode has clearly shown Governor Walker’s disregard for the law as he fights for his political survival. In the end, the Governor’s office complied with the law and now we’ll see just how much travel he has taken as he runs for President.”

Pocan raised the issue back in June as he was trying to determine how much Scott Walker has traveled in his quest for the White House, especially in comparison to the number of jobs he’s created in Wisconsin. (www.WheresScottWalker.com)



Nice of the taxpayers here in Wisconsin to fund the Governer's (sic) presidential campaign.

So depressing. Only one Burke sign that I noticed in many miles.
