Every day, there are hundreds of hospital patients in Wisconsin who are ready to be discharged but do not have a post-acute care facility to go to. This leads to additional days in the hospital, which is costly. We passed the Complex Care Package to begin piloting new, innovative partnerships to address this.

I'd like two highlight two bills that we passed on the Assembly Floor yesterday to protect our kids. SB 111 and SB 333 have both passed unanimously in each house of the legislature. They now go to the governor's desk.

In case you missed it, the City of South Milwaukee and the City of Oak Creek will enter into an intergovernmental agreement under which Oak Creek will begin providing dispatch services to South Milwaukee.

Earlier this year, I asked you to nominate a first responder for First Responder of the Year. I received several impressive nominations for very deserving first responders! In October, I presented the First Responder of the Year award to Captain Dan Fournier of the South Milwaukee Police Department (SMPD). However, I wanted to take the time to honor the other nominees, as well.
