Vos No Longer Even Listens to Wisconsin Voters!

In Rep. Robin Vos’s latest video to his constituents (he never seems to be available for a Town Hall meeting), he claims to want to work “together” with Democrats. Vos knows that is what Wisconsin voters want. But talk is cheap. Vos is on the record as saying working together is fine, “as long as we don’t sacrifice our principles.” Vos said he has never believed bipartisanship should be his goal, “I want to score, not be on the 50-yard line,” he said.

Rep. Vos is ONLY willing to compromise on issues that HE feels can be bipartisan. That is, on all the small, insignificant issues. On important topics such as taxes, education, social issues…it’s his way or the highway. So, yes, he is STILL partisan to the core of his very being. As he says, he’ll listen to you until the cows come home, but he admits it will go in one ear and out the other because he WILL. NOT. COMPROMISE. In a nutshell, Rep. Robin Vos is a radical, extremist Tea Party guy who wants to shove his beliefs, his agenda and his goals down your throat, no matter what you might believe. Rep. Vos, listening but discounting the beliefs and values of half of your constituents is NOT an example of working together.



As Co-Chair of the Joint Finance Committee, Vos had a duty…an OBLIGATION…to listen to all the voters in Wisconsin. In the following video, he refuses to listen to a voter who requested a meeting. We think that three weeks is plenty of time to return a phone call, have your staff respond with a letter to your question, and, to schedule a meeting in his busy BUSY schedule (remembering that the legislature is ONLY meeting ONE time this September.) But, NO. Vos can’t be bothered to even listen. It’s beneath him. Watch Vos avoid eye contact. Watch Vos walk away. Watch Vos tune out. And, so you get the full effect of Vos’s scorn for half the voters in Wisconsin, watch his buddy Republican Scott Suder of Abbotsford SMIRK. (Suder, BTW, ought to be a bit more conciliatory – he’s from a blue area of the state and his seat is in jeopardy – this video is NOT flattering for either man:)



Let’s hear from voters actually residing in Vos’s district. Tell us your unsuccessful efforts to get Rep. Vos to listen to you…and your unsuccessful efforts to get Vos to act in a bi-partisan manner.  We'll even post your videos!!
