From: Mike Spies
To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to Wisconsin's Open Records act, I hereby request the following records:
I'm requesting all emails (direct correspondence only) and text messages--starting on January 1, 2013, through September 9, 2016--between Governor Scott Walker, or any member of her staff, and John Commerford, the NRA state lobbyist.
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I would request your response within ten (10) business days.
Sincerely,
Mike Spies
From:
Thank you for your e-mail message. I welcome you expressing your views and concerns to me, and I commend you for participating in your state government. I take into account the views of all of the citizens of Wisconsin, and I will keep your specific comments in mind during my service as your Governor.
If you would like more information about my positions on issues, or would like to read my public statements on issues, I encourage you to explore my website: www.walker.wi.gov. I like to respond individually to every letter and telephone call I receive; however, I cannot respond to each e-mail individually due to the volume. If your request is time sensitive, please call my office at (608) 266-1212. You may also write to me via conventional mail at Governor Scott Walker: PO Box 7863, Madison, WI 53707.
Once again, thank you for contacting me. Please feel free to contact me again if I can ever be of assistance to you.
Sincerely,
Scott Walker
Governor
