Westport First Selectman Gordon Joseloff says he is sending a bill to President Obama's re-election campaign for this week's visit to southwestern Connecticut.
The Democrat says the President's trip to Westport Monday cost the town $15,000 in overtime.
Joseloff says the town made similar requests during the Clinton administration and was turned down.
He says he still thinks the town should try and recover the money.
