Scott Walker gets a new gig charging up to $25,000 per speech
MADISON - Former Republican Gov. Scott Walker has a new gig charging five figures to give speeches about politics and his time in public office in Wisconsin.
Walker announced Thursday he would be joining Worldwide Speakers Group, which coordinates speaking engagements for former White House press secretary Sean Spicer, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and former Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina.
Walker's speaking fee ranges between $15,000 and $25,000 per engagement. According to the group's website, Walker's speech topics include:
Leadership Lessons: How big, bold reforms work.
Insights on the current political (and future) landscape in America
Crisis Management: How to turn a serious challenge into a major opportunity
Power to the People: Sending resources and responsibilities to the states.
The Power of Faith in Times of Crisis
Walker was first elected as governor in 2010 and in 2012 became the first governor in America to survive a recall election, which was prompted over his signature legislation known as Act 10 that dramatically curtailed collective bargaining for most public employees.
