Rep. Anderson Votes Against Gutting Unemployment Insurance

Encourages Investment in Real Workforce Development Solutions

MADISON, Wis. - Representative Clinton Anderson voted against bills gutting unemployment insurance on the Assembly floor. “Assembly Republicans are attacking unemployment insurance to address the workforce shortage. If they are serious about solving the issues with our workforce, they would work across the aisle and work on real issues facing Wisconsinites, such as child care.” 

Representative Anderson encourages investing $340 million to continue the Child Care Counts Program. “Child Care Counts funding will be reduced by half by June. This would cause child care centers to raise tuition, reduce slots, and potentially close. Let’s invest in our kids and maintain this much needed program.”
