A political action committee heavily-funded by Beloit billionaire Diane Hendricks and the Metropolitan Milwaukee Association of Commerce - - details, here - - is funding a TV ad backing GOP State Sen. Leah Vukmir for US Senate.
The ad ties Vukmir to Gov. Walker - - whose campaigns have strong links to Hendricks and the MMAC - - and awards her "spending hawk" status.
What kind of spending hawk would consistently back Walker's budgets and policies that regularly overspend on state road projects, roll up borrowings with their long-term debt obligation, fuel Legislative paralysis, and create persistent transportation program deficits?
All while keeping the roads we have in a persistent state of disrepair?
A separate radio ad that backs Vukmir US Senate bid also says she'll support building Trump's border wall.
There are conflicting estimates for the wall's cost. Here is one article containing projections of $8 to $67 billion.
Ask yourself when any massive project like this came in under budget, and name any advocates who took any red-ink responsibility.
And what kind of a spending hawk flatly commits to such an ill-defined, logistically-challenged, open-ended, multi-billion-dollar proposal?
