Congresswoman Gwen Moore (D-Milwaukee) today used her five minutes of allotted time at a Congressional hearing today to grill Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker about his priorities as he attempts to balance the state budget.
Moore accused Walker of balancing the budget on the backs of the poor and the middle class while enacting tax breaks for the wealthiest residents and corporations.

Walker testified alongside Vermont Democratic Gov. Peter Shumlin, who is balancing his state’s budget by negotiating with the labor unions representing public employees.
The Wisconsin AFL-CIO posted a blog today about "admissions" Walker made under oath today.
