Rep. Garthwaite spent the afternoon today speaking with more than 50 local officials, economic development leaders, and employers in Platteville. As expected, he tried to deny having voted the way he did on several amendments to the state budget. That is a big reason that I am taking the time to research the state budget and to report honestly on how he voted.
Sources who attended the meeting are reporting to me that Rep. Garthwaite continued preaching his anti-employer, anti-job rhetoric. Although he didn’t tell employers to “get their ass back down south” as he did on the floor of the Assembly in April, he did level attacks on them, by claiming that the job creators of SW WI were on a “witch hunt,” for calling him out on his votes in favor of job killing policies and tax increases in the budget.
