Yet Another GOP Donor Gets A Special Bill

Add this freshly-disclosed one-donor/GOP legislative favor - -

Another Day, Another Favor Disclosed To A Wisconsin GOP Donor 
On top of the news that GOP State Rep. Joel Kleefisch had twice legislated for a donor comes the news that GOP State Sen. Sheila Harsdorf, (R-River Falls), got Senate approval to pay a businesswoman/donor's $217,000+ claim against the state even after other officials had rejected the claim and a review board set up to handle such disputes told the donor to take her case to court. 
Are Wisconsin legislators now nothing but special-interest bellhops?
And let's not forget the iron mining interests.
