Haussamen Goes After Tim Jennings

NMPolitics - Senate President Pro Tem Tim Jennings apparently doesn’t understand that using government resources to campaign is never appropriate.

You might get annoyed at having to read that statement three times, but I’m not repeating it for you. I’m repeating it for Senate President Pro Tem Tim Jennings, who had a staffer in his government office, which is funded by your money, send out his 2012 re-election campaign announcement on Monday.
Jennings, a Roswell Democrat, has served in the Senate since 1979, but he somehow still doesn’t get it. It’s not OK to use public money to promote your campaign. Ever.

Tim Jennings

Ever. Ever. Ever.
The e-mail came from the staffer’s @nmlegis.gov address, and was signed at the end this way:
Senator Timothy Z. Jennings
Office of the President Pro Tem
Room 105, State Capitol Building
Santa Fe, NM 87501
Phone: 986-4733
Fax: 986-4409
Government staffer. Government e-mail address. Government office. Government phone number. Government fax number. There’s no question that Jennings used public money to promote his political career. Read full column here: News New Mexico
