Reports The Daily Caller:
On Tuesday, Hatch wrote to the Labor Department’s Deputy Inspector General Daniel Petrole asking him to “investigate this matter thoroughly to determine whether the insertion of these posters violates any federal laws, including the Hatch Act, and whether the Secretary’s message has created a hostile work environment for any federal employees who might have differing political views.”
Hatch said Solis’ “poster campaign” conveys an “overtly political message.” Hatch said he thinks it’s “vital” to make sure “American taxpayers are not subsidizing partisan political messages, particularly during this contentious election season.” He said it’s also important to “ensure that federal government employees are not subjected [to] political propaganda in the workplace.”

You get what you sow, and Hatch has repeatedly sown support for government-expanding nominations like Solis, like Eric Holder, Like Cass Sunstein, and like Ruth Bader-Ginsburg, whose name he suggested to President Clinton.
It's a little much for Hatch to evince distress now for the crop he sowed.
