From the Green Bay Press.

MADISON — Three state lawmakers from Northeastern Wisconsin urged Gov. Jim Doyle on Tuesday to ensure that state agencies follow the law by disclosing government contract information online for public viewing."

"We believe that Wisconsin residents deserve to know what their tax dollars are being spent on when agencies enter into contracts," wrote state Rep. Dean Kaufert, R-Neenah; state Sen. Rob Cowles, R-Allouez; and state Rep. Bob Ziegelbauer, D-Manitowoc, in a letter to Doyle.

Adam Collins, a Doyle spokesman, said the governor expects agencies to comply with the law.


"The governor has long been a proponent of transparency in government. He signed this bill into law. This office … has been sending this (contract) information in and the governor certainly would expect that there be compliance," Collins said.

Transparency, hey Adam, what are the details of the choo choo and the deal your boss did with that company from Spain? So Diamond Jim signed a law and it's not being followed. Why do we need more laws to enforce laws already on the books?




Where is JB Van Hollen? Is this "EMPTY SUIT" time again? Why can't our AG investigate and  or prosecute Doyle and his non compliance with the law? Is all of government corupt?
State Rep. Tom Nelson, D-Kaukauna, majority leader of the state Assembly, said he still is researching the issue but is open to proposals to improve the state's contracting site.


And what kind of answer is this from "BABY FACE" Nelson? Still researching or obstructing the letter of the law? Nelson and his party is running a giant cover up. We need a change over in Madison.
