Howard Marklein: (608) 266-0703 Legislative Republican Leaders Respond to Special Session Request Madison…Legislative Republican leaders call on Governor Evers to take ownership of the problems with the Unemployment Insurance (UI) system. Legislative audits have shown the major issues with the backlog at the Department of Workforce Development (DWD) during the pandemic were not due to an old computer system but rather mismanagement of the agency itself. In addition, a new Legislative Fiscal Bureau memo states that the Evers administration has the authority to initiate these IT upgrades on its own. “Governor Evers continues to cast blame on others and accepts little fault himself,” said Speaker Robin Vos (R-Rochester). “We are always open to passing necessary legislation, but unfortunately, this Special Session call is about politics; not about policy.” "Governor Evers already has the funding and tools he needs to fix the problems at DWD," said Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu (R-Oostburg). "Now, instead of effectively using his resources, he's scrambling to shift blame while people are still left waiting." “We are unfortunately seeing the same song and dance from Governor Evers that we’ve come to expect: a lack of leadership,” said Majority Leader Jim Steineke (R-Kaukauna). “The governor has consistently slapped down the legislature’s extended hand to address the unemployment backlog, and now is trying to pass the buck when ownership of the UI failure is both needed and warranted.” “The Governor calling us into a Special Session is pure political grandstanding,” said Rep.

  • S/L Sign on Letter Re: Rescue Plan State/Local
    February 17, 2021 U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Members of Congress: As elected leaders representing communities across our nation, we are writing to urge you to take immediate action on comprehensive coronavirus relief legislation, including desperately needed funding for states, counties, cities, and schools, and an increase in states’ federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP). President Biden’s ambitious $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan will go a long way towards alleviating the significant financial strain COVID-19 has placed on our states, counties, cities, and schools, and the pocketbooks of working families. Working people have been on the frontlines of this pandemic for nearly a year and have continued to do their jobs during this difficult time. Dedicated public servants are still leaving their homes to ensure Americans continue to receive the essential services they rely upon: teachers and education workers are doing their best to provide quality education and keep their students safe, janitors are still keeping parks and public buildings clean, while healthcare providers are continuing to care for the sick. Meanwhile, it has been ten months since Congress passed the CARES Act Coronavirus Relief Fund to support these frontline workers and the essential services they provide. Without significant economic assistance from the federal government, many of these currently-middle class working families are at risk of falling into poverty through no fault of their own. It is a painful irony that while many have rightly called these essential workers heroes, our country has failed to truly respect them with a promise to protect them and pay them throughout the crisis.

  • Contacting Your Legislators
    Contacting Your Legislators Communicate with your legislature and let them know what issues are important to you and how their decisions will impact your life. Here are some tips for effectively communicating with your legislature: Write or give your name and address. Write or call about one bill or subject at a time. Have the name and/or number of legislation you are interested in. Be concise and to the point when calling or writing. Be courteous when calling or writing. Commend the legislator when possible. First, ask the legislator to support or oppose the legislation or subject you are calling or writing about. Give your own opinion in your own words. Stay away from form letters and postcards. Give reasons for your opinions and share opinions of organizations you may belong to. Request that the legislator let you know their opinion on the issue. If you receive a generic, non-committal letter, respond to your legislator and ask again for their position. Federal Legislators U. S.
