MILWAUKEE (AP) - A Milwaukee man who acknowledges calling U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson’s office hundreds of times has received a “cease and desist” warning from Johnson’s staff.

Earl Good says the letter he recently received from Johnson’s office tells him to communicate only in writing and that he should stop making “unwarranted telephone calls and office visits.” Johnson’s staff warns that they will contact U.S. Capitol police if he fails to comply.

Good tells WDJT-TV (https://bit.ly/2lurzQK) that he’s a registered Democrat and concerned citizen and started calling the Republican senator to voice his opinion after President Trump’s inauguration. Good admits he’s persistent and even called 83 times until someone picked up.

Johnson spokesman Ben Voelkel says that constituents are welcome to contact the office with their concerns, but infrequently behavior by a constituent “crosses the bound of decency.”
