Working for you!

 

Addressing the Needs of Our Homeless Community Members

Last month the Assembly adopted legislation addressing the issue of homelessness in Wisconsin. As a next step, Representative Steineke invited legislators to attend a tour and roundtable discussion in Appleton on this important topic.

I was deeply moved by the (In)Visible display at Appleton History Museum and the stories shared with us at the Fox Valley Technical College roundtable.

Letting Families Decide

I’m cosponsoring Assembly Bill 260 with Representative Wichgers, which would let a family choose a chiropractor to provide a school district mandated physical for participation in athletics.

I believe families should be able to make decisions about who they see for their health care needs and I’m pleased that this week the bill was passed by the Assembly Committee on Health.

Winneconne FFA Visits Madison

It was great to see members of the Winneconne FFA and chat with them about the importance of agricultural education.

When they asked me about my favorite animal I had to choose the Holstein, the cow that gave so much to the family farm I grew up on, including our own brand of ice cream!

Devastating Weather

Wednesday brought a destructive storm to the Appleton area. For information about storm debris clean up reach out to your local town, village, or city. For information about Appleton click on the photo below:

 

Upcoming Events

Don’t forget this Sunday is Father’s Day. If you’re still looking for something to do check out upcoming events near us by visiting the Wisconsin Tourism website, and if you run into me while you’re out and about be sure to stop and say hi!

To all the fathers out there: I hope your children and grandchildren bring you all the joy that mine do!
