Gov. Scott Walker addresses an NRA convention in Tennessee.
Despite several Republicans announcing they are running for president in 2016, Governor Scott Walker says his attention remains on other priorities.
Even though several Republicans have already made their plans public, Walker says he’s not feeling any pressure to push up his decision. During a stop in Appleton this week, Walker said “I’m focused on the state budget. I won’t make any decision until after the budget is complete.”
That may not happen until the end of June.
While he’s not an announced candidate, the governor hs continued to travel the country to speak with conservatives. He said he’s been getting good feedback on his message during those trips and has found that “certainly people want leaders who both fight and win for hard-working taxpayers.”
The governor is on the road again this weekend, with several stops planned in Iowa.
