Lazich issues State of the State remarks

 

State Senator Mary Lazich (R-New Berlin) issued following statement following Governor Scott Walker’s State of the State address.

 

Wisconsin is in a better place today than one year ago.  While Democrats left the state and Republicans worked in a chaotic environment, we managed to get serious solutions to the serious problems that faced our state.  We balanced the budget, without raising taxes, improved the state’s business climate, lowered unemployment to its lowest level in four years, and identified nearly a half billion dollars of waste, fraud and abuse in state programs.

 

“Governor Walker demonstrated a serious approach to governing again tonight in his remarks.  Concrete proposals like the Wisconsin Working Plan and the Read to Lead Taskforce Report will make Wisconsin better next year than it is today.

 

“Republicans will continue to work with a passion on the real problems Governor Walker identified tonight.  Too many Wisconsinites are still without work, too many young people still struggle to read, and too many people rely on government assistance programs.

 

“I urge Democrats to put partisanship aside and work to solve the serious problems facing the people of Wisconsin.”
