While the coronavirus has affected our country's health and economy, the most sacred of all, our freedom, should be inoculated.

Governor Tony Evers decision to have DHS Secretary Andrea Palm extend his “safer at Home” order to May 26th is shocking and most likely illegal. The Governor only has power to extend his emergency order to May 10th. Then he must work with the state legislature. One might wonder why he has failed to seek opinions or even brief members of the legislature to this point. DHS Secretary Andrea Palm does not have the authority to extend the order, and the Wisconsin Supreme Court will likely strike down the extension beyond May 10th.

"Speaking with candidates for public office is something I take seriously. Putting the wrong person in office can mean big problems for my constituents. Jessi has been both incredibly solid on policy issues and responsiveness. These two things are the most important qualities a good representative should have. I have no doubt that the people of the 3rd Congressional District will be well served by Jessi Ebben in Congress."

The Wisconsin State Assembly met on Tuesday to approve the Coronavirus Response Bill. There was a collaborative effort in crafting the legislation, using input from Democrats, Republicans, workers, business owners, healthcare providers and constituents. The result was a bill that bolsters the state’s response to the public health emergency and a near unanimous vote, which proves that our state can come together during these unprecedented times.

Many of you by now have seen the recent news of Sen. Jenifer Shilling not seeking re-election in the fall. I wish her and her family well.

Folks have reached out to me because of the news wondering how they can help. And I want to be clear, this race is not over! My approach to this campaign has not changed. If anything, it now means we will need to work much harder to win in November for the honor of representing you in the State Senate.
