Cutting Funding For DEI Positions

Currently, the University of Wisconsin System spends about $16 million annually on 226 positions related to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), with most of the positions concentrated at UW-Madison, 74, and UW-Eau Claire and UW-Whitewater both second most with 34 positions each.

I've called for eliminating funding for these positions as our universities have gone from being institutions of higher learning to institutions of indoctrination. The offices are teaching students to view the world entirely through the lens of race, which only grows the racial divide.

It was a great week back in the district

I started the week in the western part of the district for a Joint Offices, Businesses, and Schools (J.O.B.S) Roundtable. Here, local business leaders, educators, and chamber of commerce members, as well as State Senator Romaine Quinn and State Representative Dave Armstrong, joined me for a great conversation on the workforce, employee recruitment, education, commercial driver's license regulations, childcare, and more.
