(CBS 58) – Former Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker says his son, Matt, is considering running for Congress.
In a tweet on Friday, Walker wrote that his son is considering running for Wisconsin’s 5th Congressional seat once longtime Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner retires.
Many great potential GOP candidates in 2020 WI 5th CD race. I’ve worked closely with many: @SenFitzgerald, @LeahVukmir, @SenatorKapenga, @DaleKooyenga & others. My son @MattWalkerWI is also considering a run. He believes there needs to be a counter from his generation to @AOC
