Moore’s announcement describes the book as an urgent call to action to combat what he says is a “dangerous turn toward secrecy and censorship in Wisconsin state government.” He also says elected officials in the state are “increasingly extinguishing pathways to the information the public needs” to self-govern.
Previous books by Moore include “How the DNR Stole Wisconsin,” “Journeys of Lightheartedness” and “The New Bossism of the American Left.”
