5 Ways Scott Walker's Allies on Wisconsin's High Court Just Legalized Political Corruption

Now, there is nothing stopping a candidate, from forming a nonprofit, having it operate out of their campaign offices, and asking billionaires and corporations from around the company (or overseas) to contribute million-dollar checks, without any public disclosure.

Donors who max out on their contributions directly to campaigns (currently limited to 10k per gubernatorial candidate) will have a new conduit for giving money, with the full knowledge of the candidate, but no disclosure to the public. Special interests seeking political favors — but not public scrutiny.

evidence made public , Walker secretly raised millions for Wisconsin Club for Growth during the recalls with the express purpose of bypassing campaign finance disclosure laws. Walker’s staff advised the governor to "stress that donations to WiCFG are not disclosed," and to tell donors "that you can accept corporate contributions and it is not reported" and to call WiCFG “your 501c4.” Some secret donors later received special treatment from the Walker administration, such as the mining company CEO that donated $700k and saw Walker prioritize a mining bill, and the chain hardware store owner who gave $1.5 million and received $1.8 million in tax credits from Walker’s jobs agency.

Among the biggest spenders on Wisconsin Supreme Court elections have been Wisconsin Club for Growth and Wisconsin Manufacturers and Commerce, which are the same groups that allegedly coordinated with Walker.

Together, these two groups spent $10 million on “issue ads” helping elect the court’s four-justice conservative majority. Yet, under the Wisconsin Supreme Court's ruling, justices can ruling, justices can now solicit secret donations directly to an issue ad group like Wisconsin Manufacturers and Commerce, and work directly with that group, without violating Wisconsin law. A justice could even ask a party with a case pending before the Court to donate to an affiliated nonprofit group. After all, "issue ads" don't implicate Wisconsin campaign finance law whatsoever, under the Court's decision.
