Tuesday, March 17 marked another day of session for the State Senate. We passed dozens of bills, including seven I authored. Many of these bills had already passed the Assembly and now head to the Governor for signature. While there are a few items I am disappointed that we were not able to get across the finish line, such as renewal of the Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Program, I believe that this was a successful session with a great deal of positive work done to make our state a better place to work, live, and raise a family.

Here are some of the highlights of our work:

You’d think every American, Republican or Democrat, could get behind requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote in federal elections – but you'd be wrong.

Democrats BLOCKED the SAVE Act.

Then, they BLOCKED funding the Department of Homeland Security as our nation faces growing terror threats.

This should make your blood boil. It should be a rallying call for EVERY conservative to get off the sideline and join the fight. If you don’t, they’ll take back the majority! Rush in $5, $10, $25 now. >>

Republicans hold the Senate right now.

Agriculture is the cornerstone of Wisconsin and the backbone of our nation. Our farmers don’t just feed our state, they keep America fueled. When agriculture succeeds in Wisconsin, families across our country benefit. We are the Dairy State, and here, agriculture isn’t just an industry, it’s our way of life.

That’s why President Trump and Republicans delivered tax relief to help farm families invest, grow, and pass their operations on to the next generation.

As the upcoming Wisconsin Supreme Court election approaches, two candidates have emerged for the seat: Chris Taylor (who has proclaimed herself as a liberal) and Maria Lazar (who has proclaimed herself as an independent jurist). Chris Taylor presents herself as the people’s candidate. But it doesn’t take much effort to see the radical agenda beneath her smooth words. Taylor has spent the last two decades pushing her radical anti-life and anti-family agenda. Her background and track record clearly reveal the type of judge she will be if elected.
