Hello,

      Thank you to all those who provided feedback on Governor Evers' budget. I appreciated hearing from so many of you and hope you will monitor the budget as it moves through the legislative process. The full budget can be accessed here. You can also subscribe to the Wisconsin Legislature Notification Center to receive updates when changes are made relating to the budget or other issue areas you care about. 

      Each legislative session, constituents and groups meet with legislators to provide their input and suggestions for the budget. Today I attended a meeting on nursing home funding and met with one of my constituents, Frank Soltys, from Felician Village in Manitowoc. I was moved by the heartfelt stories from caregivers who do all they can to meet the needs of our elderly and long-term care populations, despite challenging situations. 

      It is time we help those who dedicate their lives to helping others. Their jobs are not easy, but they are vital to keep our communities going. I will support these facilities however I can during the budget process, so needy patients can receive quality care and our providers can operate in a workable and reasonable environment. It was great to hear their proposals as we begin working on the budget.

      As always, if there is anything I can do to assist you, please contact me. You can share your thoughts, find out additional information on issues, or see where I stand on any legislation. I look forward to hearing from you and, as always, working for you. 

Sincerely, 

Representative Paul Tittl

Thanks for Stopping By!

      My constituents' dedication never ceases to amaze me. No matter how cold, snowy or challenging the weather may be, I have passionate groups making the trek down to Madison just to visit with their legislators. Over the last week, I met with representatives from ABATE, the County Registers of Deeds, and the Manitowoc County Home Builders Association. I will keep their comments and perspectives in mind as I draft and co-sponsor legislation, as well as when I have the ability to vote on different bills in my committees or on the Assembly floor.

     Do you have ideas about legislation? Do you want to provide feedback on a bill? I am here to serve you, so please contact me and share your thoughts. The best ideas for legislation do not come from politicians in Madison, but from people around the state with lived experiences. I would love to hear from you!     

 Honorary Girl Scout

      This week I was sworn in as an honorary girl scout! (I even have a pin to prove it) A passionate and articulate group of girls from around the state stopped by the Capitol on Wednesday to engage with legislators and share their thoughts on important issues. These girls will help shape the future of our state! Though I did not have any girl scouts in attendance from my area, I was able to speak with leaders from Northeast Wisconsin who do much to help these girls achieve their goals. 

McKinley Academy School Visit

      Last Friday, I had the privilege of stopping by McKinley Academy and speaking with a class about government career opportunities. There are many worthwhile professions within the government sector, from agency workers to elected officials! I appreciate all the work done by teacher Stephanie Stevens to expose the students to different career paths, so they can make educated decisions about their futures. These kids will make a difference!
