I've always been a believer in transparent government, both as your State Senator and as a private citizen.
As I prepare to leave the Senate, I'm happy to announce I'll be returning the vast majority of my annual office budget - nearly $48,000 - to the good people of Wisconsin.
It's only right that these unused funds go back to the state to be used elsewhere, and lessen the burden on hardworking taxpayers across Northeast Wisconsin.
Fiscal responsibility is the hallmark of a transparent government, one that is worthy to work for our state.
Wishing a Merry Christmas to everyone in the 2nd Senate District!
May your holiday season be plentiful with good company, good health, and good memories.
So cool to see - the bright technical education students of Northeast Wisconsin will be the great engineers of the future!

My sympathies go out to Lt. Tyler Kreiter and his family at this difficult moment.
No words can do justice to describe the dedication Lt. Kreiter gave for his department and his community.

Milo Huempfner bravely risked his life during the Battle of the Bulge so the local Belgian townspeople could celebrate Christmas Mass amidst the gunfire.
It's only right that Green Bay's VA center be rededicated in the name of this local hero.

The 2024 State Capitol Christmas Tree was recently lit in the Rotunda!
The theme for this year’s ornaments celebrates 125 years of Wisconsin’s state parks.
Be sure to stop in and check out this 30-foot spectacle if you’re in the Madison area during the holiday season!
Congratulations to @CUBWI for recently celebrating its 45th birthday!
The Citizens Utility Board has helped property owners and businesses save billions.
I'm thankful for their recognition and help in making utilities affordable for all Wisconsinites!

Just because you might see ice on the water does not mean it's thick enough for fishing!
Be smart this winter and avoid recklessly risking your life by stepping out on thin ice.

Get ready, hunters: gun deer season kicks off tomorrow!
Before you head out into the woods and settle into your deer stand, make sure you're up-to-date on all the equipment and information you'll need for the days ahead.

Great to see @gbphoenixvb support Alzheimer's research in Northeast Wisconsin!
I've seen loved ones in my family affected by this terrible disease, and we're one step closer to finding a cure.
