"My plan is to audit all of state government...."
Tom Tiffany is asking questions about why Democrats in the state are not more interested in making sure government is open, accountable, and actually working.
Tiffany took to X over the weekend to press the issue.
"Why did Democrats in Madison veto four state auditor positions? Because they don’t want accountability for where your tax dollars are going," Tiffany wrote. "My plan is to audit all of state government, increase transparency on where your money goes, and return the $3 billion surplus to you."
Tiffany is making an issue of state government accountability after years of less than flattering audits over Gov. Tony Evers’ administration.
Among those audits are reports on broadband spending that showed a lack of oversight, and an audit on how the governor spent or mis-spent COVID relief money.
Tiffany on Friday launched his Taxpayer Accountability Plan.

As governor, we are going to bring more transparency, better results, and less waste to state government.”
