The Democratic Party of Wisconsin is calling for prosecutors to review an incident in which a company allegedly pressured Gov. Scott Walker's administration to interfere in an environmental investigation and a lawsuit filed by neighbors of Madison-Kipp Corp.

In a letter to be sent Wednesday, the party asks U.S. Attorney John Vaudreuil and Dane County District Attorney Ismael Ozanne to examine the actions of Ray Taffora, a former deputy state attorney general who supervised environmental enforcement for the state Department of Justice. Taffora now represents the East Side metal parts fabricator.

The State Journal reported April 2 that Madison-Kipp, through Taffora, had pressured Walker's office to intervene in a Department of Natural Resources investigation and citizen lawsuit stemming from soil and water pollution from the plant. A DNR regulator said in an affidavit that he had never experienced such interference in 30 years with the agency.
