My husband is a County Supervisor in Wisconsin. This is tough. As a Patriot, this is extreme overreach. As an American, this is 100% necessary to stop the waste, fraud and abuse. I guess the real question is “Who has access to this information?”.
Nobody in our current government can be trusted with it, and I certainly wouldn’t want the public to be able to look at my finances.
I don’t know how I feel about this.
Does this law only involve the person who is the public official or does the spouse have to also put their net worth down in the form? This kind of thing may be necessary but it seems very personal to me. I'm not sure if I agree with this or not, but bribery has to be stopped at all costs and we need to know our "public" officials are not in the "public" office to get much richer than when they went in.
I agree with you. I just question who is trustworthy enough to have access to this information. Also, we were convinced that the Patriot Act was necessary. Yikes!
