As quoted on hunter backtags in Deer, elk and bear hunters no longer need 'nuisance' back tags.  (Wisconsin State Journal, 3/9/2016)

As quoted on voter ID in Walker defends voter ID law in debate.  (Politico, 10/11/2014)

Wouldn't it be just as easy to say.....

"I believe the vast majority of Wisconsin voters are ethical, and requiring voter ID is not going to change their ethics."
