Earlier today, the audits @RepWittke and I ordered as co-chairs of the Joint Legislative Audit Committee to investigate so-called "diversity, equity, and inclusion" initiatives in Wisconsin's state government and the Universities of Wisconsin were released to the public.
The results of these reports show us the extent to which DEI grifters profiteer off Wisconsin taxpayers with very little to show for it. Wisconsin should not tolerate, much less propagate, race-based discrimination masquerading as equality in its halls of government.
Thanks to these findings, we can now more clearly see how DEI wastefully spends taxpayer dollars, and end it for good.

The "state of education" is Wisconsin right now is poor because of DPI Superintendent Underly's lack of leadership.
Between increasing cases of predatory teachers in classrooms and lowering student success standards, Jill Underly is failing our schools.

To close out PFAS Awareness Week, I'm also proud of the Legislature's work to ensure PFAS settlement funds go towards impacted communities, not Madison bureaucrats.
The Legislature passed my plan to create the PFAS Trust Fund in 2023 to ensure any funds the state receives from PFAS lawsuit settlements are used for victim relief, including the recent $10 million Tyco settlement.
Despite delays by the DNR, I joined my colleagues in quickly approving these funds to assist with cleanup efforts in Marinette and Peshtigo.

Great to talk with the Oconto County Farm Bureau earlier this week about the Legislature's continued work to support Wisconsin farmers.

Yet another example of DPI leadership being asleep at the wheel and putting our students in the classroom with a predator.
Our audit investigating DPI's policies for grooming and sexual misconduct allegations will help ensure our kids are safe at school.

In honor of PFAS Awareness Week, I've been proud to work with my colleagues in the Legislature to pass bipartisan bills that tackle these "forever chemicals."
This session, we delivered $133 million in relief funds and necessary reforms to help affected communities clean up the mess.
Because the Legislature passed my bills, pollution victims across Wisconsin are getting the support they need.

Today on National POW/MIA Recognition Day, we pause to remember the men and women in uniform who were held as prisoners of war or are still missing in action.
We will always be grateful for the sacrifices these heroes made to defend our nation and protect our freedom.

Happy Constitution Day, Wisconsin! On this day in 1787, delegates at the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia approved the final draft of the United States Constitution.
Ratified in 1789, the U.S. Constitution is the world's oldest active written constitution.

Another example of DPI leadership failing at their most basic responsibility by putting students in the classroom with predators.
The audit we ordered to investigate how DPI handles grooming and sexual misconduct allegations will help restore transparency and ensure Wisconsin students are safe at school.

As a former long-haul truck driver, I'm thinking of all of Wisconsin's hardworking truckers during National Truck Driver Appreciation Week.
Earlier this session, I was grateful to receive @wistrux's first-ever Legislator of the Year Award for authoring legislation to get more people into Wisconsin's trucking industry.

Newcap's whistleblower testified before the Audit Committee that the organization's leadership knew they were mismanaging taxpayer funds.
Because of the Committee's action, state auditors are now investigating these concerns so this abuse can never happen again.

Property tax levies across Wisconsin are skyrocketing thanks to Governor Evers' 400-year tax increase.
While Legislative Republicans have fought to cut costs, Democrats are making living in Wisconsin unaffordable for our families.

25 years ago today, 2,977 lives were taken in the September 11 terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and in rural Pennsylvania.
We will never forget the memory of the victims, and the heroes who saved countless other lives in the face of evil.

The Legislature continues to get PFAS relief to victims, especially in Northeast Wisconsin communities like Marinette and Peshtigo.
Proud to swiftly vote for this community-approved plan in the Finance Committee last week.
