Chris Larson: State Senate Dem Campaign Paid for Hotel

Stephen Hayes tweets:

AP reported that WI State Sen Chris Larson (D) admitted that Dem Campaign Cmte paid for at least one hotel night.

From the Associated Press:
Four Democrats who were reached by The Associated Press said none of their daily expenses would be charged to taxpayers, and none will accept any per diem funds. Larson did say his hotel room Monday was paid for by the State Senate Democratic Campaign. He said the group might pay for more nights depending on how long he stays.

Others have donated food, he said, but he declined to name them.

"Let's just say the senators have friends over here who've been more than generous in sharing with us," Larson said.

This is no surprise that the AWOL Dems are being paid to stay away and receiving "generous" assistance while they shirk their responsibilities as elected officials.

Of course, Larson is used to not paying for what he wants.
