Scott Walker to reject government funds for high speed train.
Located about halfway among Madison and Milwaukee, the billboard that's going up this week urges Wisconsin to get "back on track" and offers the Twitter hashtag WalkerRejectsRail. One can simply imagine a Prius driver stuck with traffic pounding the controls in frustration.
But the Environmentally friendly Law Policy Center, which in turn spent about $5,500 around the billboard for a 10 week function, says it's not a pitch meant to sway voters in the This year race for governor.
"It's not a governmental ad and we're not any political organization," states that ELPC director Howard Learner. "It's an ad aimed at an important public policy issue for the state of Wisconsin."
Student notes that the ELPC, which has an place of work in Madison, had been pushing on an expansion of high speed rail within the Midwest long before Walker arrived on the scene. It has supported past Gov. Tommy Thompson who had advocated for grown passenger rail both when governor and as a member of the Amtrak board.
At the same time, Learner says it is really an election year and that generally presents a good opportunity to bring up problems with incumbents seeking another term.
"This it is time to un film polarisant et Soundtrack daccompagnement avant daller sur le hiatus en 2007 make clear some of our concerns," he says.
In addition to the billboard, a ELPC has also located a poster while in the Milwaukee Amtrak station showing scenario outline sitting alone together with the caption "Rejecting high speed rail: a decision which isolates Wisconsin."
Those who observe politics in Wisconsin are usually by now well versed on the voyager rail issue. State officers had per un tabellone in fibra di vetro 50 been gepolijst en verkocht in vijf jaar Het vereist een winnende cultuur working on a plan for 20 years to connect Madison and Milwaukee.

But Walker designed the train money an issue in the 2010 election, vowing he would "stop the boondoggle train to Madison" with the potential costs to citizens to maintain the service.
Subsequently, a variety of observers have lamented that decision, including Citizen Sawzag in this recent piece for Isthmus and Capital Times manager emeritus Dave Zweifel. They both make the situation the state is out not only within the federal money but is also being prosecuted by the Spanish company Talgo that have located a train manufacturing area in Milwaukee based y todas las noches en que la ve en el cielo y grita su nombre on Iowa moving forward on high speed railway.
Democratic candidate Mary Burke, meanwhile, have not made passenger rail much of an issue during her marketing campaign but has expressed aid for it, a position the subdued MacIver Institute has noted.
