Scott Walker's presidential campaign has reimbursed state $135,000 for security costs
Gov. Scott Walker’s presidential campaign has reimbursed the state $135,000 for the governor’s taxpayer-funded security detail during his presidential run last year, the Department of Administration said Monday.
That brings the total recovered by the state for his political travel-related security last year to nearly $260,000, which Walker and his administration say represents the total amount the state has billed to his campaign.
The $135,000 repaid by his presidential campaign includes mileage reimbursement, political travel-related security expenses such as hotel and airfare and half of the Internet expenses incurred at the Governor’s Mansion during the campaign period.
DOA spokesman Jim Dick noted none of those reimbursements are required by state law.
