My review of state inspection reports of the Jackson County Jail since 2015 identified inconsistencies in how the Department of Corrections has applied facility standards and inmate classification requirements.

While it is true that an Indian showed them how to use dried fish/ fish parts as fertilizer, the harvest was not abundant in 1621 nor 1622. Over half of the colonists died due to starvation and its attendant illnesses - the winter of 1620 - 21 claimed the majority. The governor of the colony, William Bradford, reported that the colonists went hungry because they refused to work in the fields.
But on a day like today, it’s worth it to take the time to really reflect upon the good things that happened over the last few years.
When my team needed funding to provide coffee, Red Bull, or pizza for our volunteers on the ground, you answered the call.
When my radical opponent flooded the airwaves with attack ads full of lies and smears about me and my record in the Senate, you were there to chip in some extra cash to keep my ads on the air to set the record straight.

Expansion of telehealth services: To improve accessibility, especially in rural and underserved areas, the initiative aims to expand telehealth services for out-of-state mental health professionals to practice via telehealth making it easier for individuals to connect with licensed professionals.
Here is a portion of the debate:
I had a sobering and eye-opening briefing with law enforcement in Walworth County about the effect of illegal immigration on their small community.
U.S. Rep. Bryan Steil and I listened to local law enforcement officers led by Walworth County Sheriff Dave Gerber and Whitewater Police Chief Dan Meyer as they explained what they're seeing in their county.
Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty (WILL) has filed a friend-of-the court (amicus) brief and a motion to intervene with the Wisconsin Supreme Court in a lawsuit seeking to overturn Wisconsin’s popular and successful school choice program. In mid-October, a progressive advocacy organization filed a lawsuit directly with the Wisconsin Supreme Court, alleging that the statutes supporting the state's private school-choice programs violate the constitution by diverting state funds from public schools to private use.
Thursday's session day was focused on election integrity.
Assembly Republicans continue to bring forth good policy to improve our elections, policies that should be bipartisan, as voting is a constitutional right that we all must protect no matter what party. However, Governor Evers continues to stand in the way of election reform.
