Former Middleton School Board President says “The truth is we fired him, but an independent arbitrator gave him his job back because of a legal loophole. Instead of running false, nasty attack ads, Scott Walker should focus on his own record.”

The ad features Ellen Lindgren, the former Middleton School Board President who was involved in the teacher case at the center of several Walker campaign and special interest group ads.

Federal lawsuit he signed off on is the greatest present threat to protecting people with pre-existing conditions.

MADISON - Last Friday, Scott Walker said that he would call a special session “if something were to change” to federal law protecting people with pre-existing conditions.

What Walker doesn’t acknowledge: the fact that a lawsuit he signed off on is the greatest present threat to those protections.

DPW released the following statement in response to his empty promises and twisted logic:

“For nearly eight years, Scott Walker has been dead set on undermining protections for people with pre-existing conditions and has no credibility on the issue going forward,” said DPW Spokesperson Alex Japko. “If Walker was serious about protecting Wisconsinites’ health care, he would have done so years before it became a huge political liability. This latest promise is just more squirming from a governor who knows his record on health care is indefensible.”
