http://progressive.org/walker_sugar_mommy_diane_hendricks.htmlBy Matthew Rothschild, May 11, 2012
Who is Walkers Sugar Mommy, Diane Hendricks?
Scott Walker admitted back in January 2011 to his biggest donor, Diane Hendricks, that he wanted to divide and conquer organized labor in Wisconsin. She urged him to turn Wisconsin into a right-to-work state.
She gave Walker $500,000 on April 12 this year and $10,000 on January 31 last year, making her his single biggest contributor.
So who is she?
She lives in Afton, Wisconsin. Shes 65. She owns ABC Supply, a roofing company in Beloit. Shes worth $2.8 billion, at least according to a profile at Forbes.com. snip
Despite Hendrickss rabidly anti-union attitude, ABC Supply says on its website that it is an employee-first company.
