Getting smart on crime
As a former Dane County prosecutor I know that it is important to keep our streets and homes safe. I'll use my expertise to work with the Sheriff and other county officials on cost-effective solutions to protect public safety.
Defending workers' rights
The last year has seen the destruction of decades old policies that work. Everyone, no matter what their job title, should be given a chance for their voice to be heard in the workplace whether it is concerning their safety, benefits, or wages.
Protecting our most vulnerable
County-funded human service programs include the Waunakee Senior Center, Meals on Wheels, and the Retired Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP). These programs are cost effective and keep people active, independent, and in their own homes. I'll work hard to ensure these services continue to get the funding they deserve.
Cleaning up Dane County's lakes
Our lakes are a vital part of our community. They provide us with recreation and natural beauty. We must protect wetlands like Cherokee Marsh to ensure the quality and beauty of Lakes Mendota and Monona.
No Four Lane Main
Turning Waunakee's Main Street into a four-lane highway would seriously harm downtown Waunakee. Instead of expanding Main Street to four lanes, we should complete the North Mendota Parkway project, which will be an east-west route running south of Waunakee.
I say "No Four Lane Main.” I support the Village of Waunakee’s efforts to keep Main Street two lanes.
