Olson quits fund drive over fines for open meetings case
Attorney general criticizes Lt. Gov Olson who canceled a fund raising drive for seven state agriculture board members fined for violating Wisconsin open meetings law. Olson argues fines were excessive and donors faced criticism. La Follette says reimbursement of fines violates the spirit of the law. Also notes two January total meetings on minimum tillage in Polk County with sessions at Balsam Lake courthouse and Osceola Village Hall.
