I'm proud to be part of the Build a Stronger Wisconsin bill package that was released today. It's up to the majority party now to move forward with these ideas. The ball is squarely in their court to do what’s right for Wisconsin workers.

The first five years stay with a child forever. JFC Republicans threw out @govevers.wisconsin.gov's proposal to continue the Child Care Counts program, so now it's up to the full legislature to act. I'm proud to co-sponsor LRB-3324 & 3322 today. Let's fix their mistake and get this passed.

I was honored to stand with my colleagues this morning to introduce an advisory referendum so voters can ask Congress to overturn the US Supreme Court's Citizens United decision in 2010. It's time to get BIG money out of our politics. This is just the beginning, folks.

Research in the Rotunda this week was a great chance to meet with some of the brilliant minds we have at the UW-Eau Claire and UW-Stout. The future is bright with students like these in the Chippewa Valley!

“The Governor’s budget keeps costs low for Wisconsin families despite misguided federal cuts and tariff taxes in Washington. We have so much to do and the Governor’s budget delivers on what Wisconsinites need while providing a big tax cut for the middle class.”
