Someday we might actually have a republican party that is fiscally conservative instead of one that just plays pretend. Unfortunately this week is not that time. While there is much uncertainty if this bill will stop any voter “fraud”, one thing is certain:
First off, despite widespread opposition, the republicans are getting set to pass their \"Stop Wisconsinites from Voting Act\".this will cost the taxpayers of Wisconsin alot of money!
Wisconsin’s bill, according to the Legislative Fiscal Bureau, would cost more than $5.7 million to implement. The measure would require voters to use a driver’s license, state ID, military ID, passport, naturalization papers or tribal ID at the polls. Student IDs would be allowed, but would have to include a current address, birthdate, signature and expiration date. Currently no college or university ID used in the state, including UW-Madison, meets those standards.
Secondly, Wisconsin was shut out Monday in its bid for $150 million in federal money to upgrade the Milwaukee-to-Chicago Hiawatha line. This money, which was originally in the high speed rail money that the Governor turned down before he was sworn in. Shortly after the Governor turned it down(to appease the right wing hate radio shock jocks), he asked for it back, but the Obama administration said no. Scott Walker’s incompetence on these two issues alone will now cost the taxpayers of Wisconsin at LEAST $156 million and probably more.
I hope they get the GOP for fraudulent recall signature canvassing.
