From Wisconsin conservative James Wigderson:

A coalition of five organizations, including four prominent conservative organizations, have filed an amicus brief in support of a lawsuit by The Progressive over an open records case involving state Rep. Scott Krug (R-Nekoosa).

The Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty (WILL), the Wisconsin Freedom of Information Council, the John K. MacIver Institute for Public Policy, the Badger Institute, and Americans for Prosperity – Wisconsin announced Friday they filed their brief supporting Bill Lueders, Managing Editor of The Progressive. The lawsuit is the result of Krug’s refusal to supply the public records in the original electronic format as Lueders requested. Instead, Krug printed the records and attempted to charge The Progressive for the cost of the copies, increasing the expense of the open records request.
