Legislature Approves State Worker Raises We are proud to approve the raises for the good people who do valuable work for our state. With no active campaign to attract workers to Wisconsin, we must be diligent in recognizing the great workers we do have by staying competitive and adjusting for inflation. -
Governor Evers Throws out ‘People’s Maps’, Draws New Maps in Secret Bipartisan supermajorities rejected the governor’s PMC maps, the PMC failed.

The hypocrisy of the governor is impossible to ignore. -
Statement on UW System Optional ACT/SAT Testing During the pandemic, students of every age have fallen woefully behind. Remedial class attendance numbers have been growing for years because high school students are unprepared for college as it is. Removing ACT/SAT requirements only exacerbates this. Benchmarks should be reinstated, not removed. -

The Wisconsin State Capitol
The Wisconsin State Capitol is a beautiful and historic building - arguably one of the most impressive capitol buildings in the country. It celebrated its 100th year of continuous use in 2017. Over that long span, it has been witness to extraordinary events in our state's history. It is open to the public and we encourage you to stop by and visit. Tours can be arranged by visiting the Capitol Tour website or by calling (608) 266-0382.
