C'mon Kathleen

WKOW's Tony Gali broke this story about Dane County employee Tim Sullivan who recently took a leave of absence from his $43,000 a year job to work on political campaigns. The county continued to pay Sullivan's health care and dental benefits which are estimated to cost taxpayers between $400 and $900 per month.

This is not the first time Dane County Executive Kathleen Falk has been caught billing the taxpayers for the health care benefits of her campaign workers. In January Falk was forced to reimburse taxpayers for the costs associated with the leave of absence her Executive Assistant Lesley Sillaman took to work on Falk's campaign for Attorney General.
