Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker has refused to provide such a list for his county, as he contends it would result in additional government spending.

Holloway said today he will bypass Walker and provide a list for Milwaukee County.

In a statement, Holloway said, "In the absence of leadership from the County Executive, I am stepping forward on behalf of the residents of Milwaukee County. By Thursday of next week, I will submit a list of capital and infrastructure improvements for consideration as part of the federal stimulus package. Governor Jim Doyle is working with the federal government on the Wisconsin’s economic stimulus projects, and I am working with him to ensure that Milwaukee County submits a list of projects to stimulate our local economy. This is a bigger issue than just Scott Walker. This is an attempt by the incoming Presidential administration to get our entire nation moving again. I do not want to see 71 other counties in Wisconsin and 49 other states receive stimulus funding while Milwaukee County is left behind."
