This week, I participated in the Green Bay School District’s Parent Advisory Committee meeting. It was a great opportunity to hear directly from parents on the issues important to them and their children as it relates to public education. I look forward to taking their thoughts with me to Madison as I review and discus the state’s budget with my legislative colleagues.

 

Urban Revitalization Committee Hearing

As a member of the Assembly Committee on Urban Revitalization I am happy to announce that the first public hearing of this legislative session will be held in Green Bay. The mission of this committee is to find and develop solutions to the unique problems that urban areas encounter. The first half of the public hearing will be with invited speakers. Members of the general public are encouraged to attend and will have an opportunity to provide input during the second half of the hearing.
