A Note from Rep. Edming

Welcome to my first e-update of the legislative session. On Tuesday, I was honored to take the oath of office and begin my second term as your state representative. I am humbled by the trust you placed in me to continue to serve as the voice of the 87th District in the Wisconsin State Assembly.  I am excited for the upcoming legislative session and ready to get back to work on policies that will grow our economy, reduce the size of government, and promote freedom.

This session I will continue to serve as the Vice-Chair of the Assembly Committee on Small Business Development.  I am eager to use my experience as a small business owner to promote initiatives that will improve our state's business climate and grow our economy.  I am also pleased to begin serving on the Agriculture Committee this session.  Agriculture is an important industry in the 87th Assembly District and the State of Wisconsin.  I look forward to working with my colleagues on the Agriculture Committee to craft policies that will allow agriculture to thrive in our state.  Additionally, I will continue serving on the Environment and Forestry, Health, Natural Resources and Sporting Heritage, and Veterans and Military Affairs Committees.

As the session gets underway, please feel free to contact me with any ideas, comments or suggestions you may have.

State of the State Address

Tomorrow, Governor Scott Walker will deliver his annual State of the State Address at 3:00 PM.  I am looking forward to hearing from Governor Walker about his plans for this legislative session and his ideas to keep Wisconsin moving forward.  If you would like to watch the State of the State address you can do so on the governor's website, www.walker.wi.gov.
 

Stay Up to Date

One of the best ways to stay up to date with what is going on in Madison is to sign up for the legislature's notification tracking service.  This service allows you to follow legislative activity here in Madison.  Once you create a free account you can sign up to receive notifications about specific bills or committees as well as legislative activity pertaining to a subject area (i.e. agriculture, veterans).  You can sign up for this service at notify.legis.wisconsin.gov.

You can also follow me on Facebook to see what I have have been doing in Madison and around the 87th Assembly District.
