I'd be curious to see what a chapter 19 open records request would turn up in terms of lobbying in local areas that have been banning CCW. I'm tempted to make a few open records requests myself, particularly for those councilmembers, mayors, etc that claimed they got a "ton" of people saying not to allow guns in city buildings.

I think that there may be a lot of lobbying and things going on behind closed doors that could be leading for a larger liberal push of repealing the CCW law or pushing more municipalities to ban weapons than have already done so. I've never made an open records request, anyone know how to do them?

Lobbying rules and complaint form.

Quite coincidentally a group of us are considering a complaint of an unregistered lobbyist that brags about lobbying for a Wisconsin corporation (presumably paying expenses) but with no known income.

Are you able to PM me the details? I'd be curious to know. :D

And thanks for posting that info. I'm definitely interested in doing some open records requests just have to find out how.
