Wisconsin’s members of Congress are pushing for more money for the Republican National Convention.
All eight members of Wisconsin’s congressional delegation last week signed a letter pressing the federal government for more. The letter says inflation has driven all costs up, and says public safety isn’t any different. The delegation is asking for 25 million-dollars more for security at next summer’s RNC, which would bring the total security price tag to 75 million. Congress has paid convention host cities 50 million-dollars for security since 2004.
