Welcome to my final e-update of 2021. Christmas is just days away and it's hard to believe that 2022 is just around the corner.
Over the next couple of weeks, my staff and I will be taking some time off to spend some time with our families so if you reach out during this time it may take a little bit longer for us to get back to you.
My staff and I wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Thank You to Dianne Ince
After serving the people of Sawyer County as their treasurer for 23 years, Dianne Ince is retiring at the end of this year. This past Friday, I had the honor of presenting her with a citation from the State of Wisconsin and flags flown over the Capitol recognizing her for her many years of hard work and dedication. Thank you Dianne for all you've done for the people of Sawyer County and congratulations on your well-deserved retirement!

Around the 87th
Wreaths Across America
We have Veterans Day in the fall and Memorial Day in the spring, but those in our military make sacrifices for us every day. Many households throughout Wisconsin and the rest of the country have empty seats at the dinner table during the Christmas season due to loved ones who are currently serving or have made the ultimate sacrifice. Last Saturday, December 18th, was National Wreaths Across America Day. To remember the fallen and honor our veterans, I participated in wreath-laying ceremonies at a number of locations around Rusk County.

Upcoming Events Around the 87th
One of my favorite parts about serving as your state representative is getting out and interacting with constituents at many of the wonderful community events across the 87th District. Check out some of the upcoming events around the district below. Also, if you know of any other events, please contact my office and let me know, so I can include them in a future e-update and try to attend myself.

The legislature is in the process of transitioning to a new system for sending out our e-updates. Right now the plan is for our office to transition to this new system around the start of the new year. When we do so the e-update may look a little different and you may get an email to ask if you wish to receive my e-updates. If you do make sure you respond to make sure you continue to receive them.
Stay Up to Date
One of the best ways to stay up to date with what is going on in Madison is to sign up for the legislature's notification tracking service. This service allows you to follow legislative activity in Madison. Once you create a free account you can sign up to receive notifications about specific bills or committees as well as legislative activity pertaining to a subject area (i.e. agriculture, veterans). You can sign up for this service at notify.legis.wisconsin.gov.
