A couple of Eau Claire-area lawmakers want to see a new law that forces presidential candidates in Wisconsin to pay their bills.
State Senator Jeff Smith from Brunswick and state Rep. Jodi Emerson from Eau Claire will debut their plan this morning. The Recovery of Unsettled Municipal Payments Act would require campaigns pay for police and fire protection and other rally-related costs before they could hold any other rallies. Both President Trump and Hillary Clinton’s campaigns still owe money for their campaign stops in Eau Claire back in 2016.
On that note, as Trump plans to visit BuckyLand and Governor Tony Evers isn’t falling for the bait ahead of President Trump’s next visit to Wisconsin. The governor told reporters in Wausau that he welcomes President Trump to the state, just like he’d welcome any president. President Trump is due to rally the faithful tomorrow night in Milwaukee.
