Patrick's Priorities
In Madison, Patrick is fighting for the people of the 24th District.
From ensuring that Madison bureaucrats are working for all Wisconsinites, to passing the largest tax cut in our history, and standing up to keep the Administration in check.
Our Republican Legislature is delivering for Wisconsinites, and Patrick is fighting alongside them to make sure that Wisconsin stays the best place to live, work, and raise a family in America!
Rebuilding Our Economy & Preventing Shutdowns
Tony Evers broke the law in 2020 to keep our businesses and economy shut down during COVID-19 through wide-ranging mandates and indiscriminate application of shutdowns for our entire state. Their dangerous policy of paying people to not work has depressed our workforce and devastated small businesses hoping to come back from this devastating pandemic. We desperately need leaders that will engage with the business community to get people back to work, rebuild our thriving economy, and bring more good paying jobs to Wisconsin.
Building Education Pipelines
As the first state to enact school choice, many Wisconsin parents have already seen how powerful choosing their child’s school can be. We need to further expand school choice and ensure that no child in the Badger State is stuck in a failing school. We also must empower school districts to invest more in technical and apprenticeship resources to make sure that all students can get a good paying job after graduation right here in Wisconsin. Without bolstering our pipelines from schools to all career fields, our workforce will continue to age with fewer and fewer skilled tradespeople to keep our economy running.
Protecting the Sanctity of Our Votes
Every Wisconsinite has a right to have their voice heard at the ballot box, and election officials absolutely cannot be allowed to play politics with our most sacred right. When election officials attempt to overrule the law, we need leaders in Madison that will take action to ensure we have trust in our elections and that only legally cast votes are counted in our elections.
Safeguarding Our Second Amendment Rights
The Second Amendment is very clear when it says “shall not be infringed.” While the federal government ramps up its administrative gun grab policies through executive fiat, Wisconsin needs state executive officers that will stand strong for one of Wisconsinites’ most important rights. The Badger State has a long tradition of sportsmanship and with increasing violent crime rates, our right to protect our families is more important than ever.
Fighting for the Unborn
Every life is precious and we need leaders in Madison that are willing to take a stand to protect the most vulnerable among us, the unborn. In the Senate, I’ve introduced key legislation to curtail the abortion epidemic and to provide parents the resources to choose life! My legislation, including the Shield the Vulnerable Act and Prenatal Diagnosis Information Act, reaffirm the belief that every life matters, but the Evers/Barnes Administration’s veto power continues to stand in the way and undermine our values.
Defending Law Enforcement & Protecting Our Communities
Tony Evers has shown his blatant disregard for Wisconsin communities. Instead of shutting down riots, they sat on their hands while Kenosha burned in 2020. They’ve used every chance to stand against our brave men and women in law enforcement and against our communities’ safety. Madison needs leaders who will stand alongside Wisconsin Law enforcement and defend them instead of calling to defund them. They desperately need more resources and Wisconsinites desperately need safer communities while areas like Milwaukee see crime rates skyrocket.
