We are working together and trying to put together a bill that meets our needs as vaccines are deployed and we continue to work through the pandemic.

“We need to use our significant surplus in Medicaid funds to continue testing, tracing and COVID-19 operations in January.”

“We increased healthcare access and affordability by committing $1.6 billion to expand access and care.”

Among our many accomplishments were significant funding allocations for the intellectual infrastructure of dairy innovation, rural broadband expansion, roads and schools

We made strong investments in fixing the roads, while keeping a watch on the checkbook for all Wisconsinites.

If you are healthy and at low risk, consider where you could offer to step in for those who cannot – and should not – be exposing themselves to the virus.
