I write today with a heart both heavy with loss and full of gratitude, reflecting on the remarkable life and enduring goodness of Charlie Kirk. In a world often marked by division and haste, Charlie was a rare beacon of sincerity and compassion. His passing has left an indelible void in our community, one that can only be measured by the countless lives he touched through his words, actions, and unwavering sense of purpose.

I’m sure by now you have heard the heartbreaking news of Charlie Kirk’s senseless assassination yesterday. Like you, our team is in shock and sickened by this tragedy.

Charlie has been a friend of our ministry and will be greatly missed. He would often come to our LEAD Wisconsin biblical worldview camp. For many campers, the highlight of the week was personally meeting Charlie and taking their picture with him.

As kids around the state go back to school, activity in the Capitol is beginning to ramp up. Committees are meeting, constituents are visiting my office, and bills continue to make their way through the legislative process. Now that we have finished the state budget, my full attention can be on legislation that will help the people and the communities I serve.

Our local police officers put their lives on the line every day to keep our communities safe, and work hard to build trust with community members. Many of you have heard of the Civilian Review Board (CRB) that has been created and supported by the La Crosse County Board. This group is an unelected group of individuals in our community without policing experience playing armchair quarterback. The CRB rather than helping, was designed ostensibly to collect complaints about police and divert people from directly reporting concerns through the proper channels.

Assembly Bill 308, also called the Wisconsin Health Care Integrity Act, prohibits any federal, state, or local funds from being used to subsidize, reimburse, or compensate for healthcare services for illegal immigrants. Blue states like Minnesota and Illinois have irresponsibly expanded their taxpayer funded healthcare programs to cover everyone regardless of their citizenship status, costing each state hundreds of millions of dollars.
