CHICAGO - Rep. Joe Walsh (R., Ill.), the tea party-backed freshman who squeaked into office last year by vowing to bring fiscal responsibility to Washington and who has been one of President Obama's most outspoken critics during the debt-ceiling standoff, is being sued for more than $100,000 in unpaid child support, the Chicago Sun-Times reported.
His ex-wife, Laura Walsh, filed the claim in December as part of their divorce case, saying he owed $117,437 to her and their three children, the newspaper reported Wednesday. She contends that Walsh lent his campaign $35,000 and took international vacations but said he couldn't afford child-support payments because he was between jobs or out of work.
