“Why are we spending $8 million on advertising to persuade people to come back to Wisconsin?” State Senate Minority Leader Jennifer Shilling, D-La Crosse, asked on Jan. 24. Shilling was questioning measures by Gov. Scott Walker and legislative Republicans that direct the Wisconsin Economic Development Corp.
