Rauner Picks Another Hoosier To Serve In His Administration


Illinois' incoming Republican governor, Bruce Rauner, has tapped another Hoosier with ties to former Gov Mitch Daniels' administration to serve on his staff. Over the weekend, a list of staff appointments made by Rauner included David Wu as Director of Government Transformation. Wu worked as a policy director for Gov. Daniels and later Mayor Greg Ballard, as well as a short stint at Angie's List. A press announcement touted Wu's work not only in public policy but also in international finance and traditional and digital media in diverse places, including Hong Kong, Singapore and Florida. Wu joins Barnes & Thornburg attorney Jason Barclay, who Rauner earlier named as his general counsel. Barclay served in a similar role for Gov. Daniels. We're still awaiting word on whether Mitch Roob, a native of Illinois, will join Rauner's administration.
