My Focus is Jobs for Wisconsin!
Thank you for taking the time to visit my homepage. I will focus first on jobs!
To bring more jobs to Wisconsin we must first level the playing field for our American workers. Many countries overseas create an unfair working environment by exploiting workers for economic gain. Because we in America believe in family supporting wages, workers compensation, social security, safe working conditions and preserving the environment, we are penalized when jobs go overseas.
While we level the playing field for Wisconsin workers, we need to advance numerous strategies: buy American products, advance sweat-free policies and create 21st century high-tech jobs.
