State Chamber of Commerce presents "Working for
Wisconsin" Award!
On January 20th, I was honored to receive the
prestigious “Working for Wisconsin” award from
the Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce
Organization at the Valley Packaging Supply
Company in Green Bay.
“During my first term as a State Representative,
it was one of my top priorities to find ways to
continue growing our state’s economy by ensuring
Wisconsin is a place where businesses can
thrive, jobs are being created, and new
businesses are opening their doors. This
session, I look forward to continuing with my
efforts to promote pro-job legislation.”
Protecting Those who Protect Us
I am proud that one of the first pieces of
legislation I will introduce this session is the
“Blue Lives Matter” bill. This bill will
strengthen Wisconsin’s resolve to support the
Law Enforcement Community and help create a
deterrent against committing a violent crime
against a member of the Law Enforcement
Community. To see my interview with WBAY 2, and
