Carrying his grandfather's rifle in an Austin Straubel International Airport conference room Thursday morning, former U.S. Rep. Mark Neumann of Nashotah took a swipe at Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker on what he characterized as flip-flopping on concealed carry rights. Neumann also held news conferences Thursday in Wausau at Wausau Downtown Airport, Eau Claire and La Crosse.
As a state representative, Walker voted no on a bill to make it legal to carry a concealed weapon in Wisconsin, but he has said he would sign such a bill into law as governor. However, Walker said he voted against the bill not on its merits but because it was voted on in the middle of the night -- at 3:51 a.m. in 2002, according to the Wisconsin State Legislature's records.
Neumann, who released a new Web ad attacking Walker on this legislative vote, reiterated what he called his firm commitment to the Second Amendment right to bear arms as it extends to carrying concealed weapons.
"A significant difference is our support of the concealed carry bill -- mine has been unwavering," Neumann said
