WRMCA SCOOP 2Nd Quarter • June 2016 • • 800.242.6298 WRMCA Legislative Update November Nomination Papers Submitted Scholarship Association 2017 Winner News Convention (see p. 4) (see p. 2-3) (see p. 6) WRMCA SCOOP 2nd Quarter • June 2016 • http://www.wrmca.com • 800.242.6298 WRMCA Legislative Update November Nomination Papers Submitted In preparation for the fall election, nomination papers were due June 1st at the state Government Accountability Board. Candidates in six of the state's eight congressional districts will find themselves in primary battles for the right to advance to November's general election. The messiest race looks like northeastern Wisconsin's 8th Congressional District, where Republican incumbent Reid Ribble's decision not to seek re-election has led no fewer than six major party candidates to declare. Outagamie County Executive Tom Nelson is the lone Democrat in the race. On the Republican side of the ticket it will likely be a showdown between current state Sen. Frank Lasee of De Pere, and Mike Gallagher of Green Bay, a former Marine who served as national security adviser for Walker's short-lived presidential campaign last summer. Lasee is well known in the district while Gallagher has the support of many Ribble supporters. In the state legislature, current GOP state Rep. Dave Craig, R-Big Bend, is in line to win a Senate seat without drawing any opponents. He was the only one to file nomination papers for the heavily Republican seat being vacated by Sen. Mary Lazich, R-New Berlin. Incumbent state lawmakers facing primary challenges include: Sen. Lena Taylor, D-Milwaukee; Sen. Jennifer Shilling, D-La Crosse; Rep. JoCasta Zamarripa, D-Milwaukee; Rep. Josh Zepnick, D-Milwaukee; Rep. Leon Young, D-Milwaukee; Rep. Christine Sinicki, D-Milwaukee; Rep. Lisa Subeck, D-Madison; and Rep. Sondy Pope, D-Mount Horeb. Some lawmakers were fortunate to draw no opponent. Those incumbent senators who did not draw any opponents include: Sen. Alberta Darling, R-River Hills; Sen. Mark Miller, D-Monona; Sen. Duey Stroebel, R-Saukville; Sen. Bob Wirch, D-Kenosha; and Sen. Fred Risser, D-Madison. Of the 99 Reps in the Assembly, 34 do not have opponents. Those in the Assembly with no opponent are: Rep. David Bowen, D-Milwaukee; Rep. Fred Kessler, D-Milwaukee; Rep. Rob Hutton, R-Brookfield; Rep. Joe Sanfelippo, R-New Berlin; Rep. Evan Goyke, D-Milwaukee; Rep. Jonathan Brostoff, D-Milwaukee; Rep.

Visiting the building during a recent campus tour, I took interest in the interior, as I hope to pursue a career in interior design and architecture. WID recently remodeled to match the innovation and creation that takes place within. Among the indoor gardens, waterfall, interactive tactile displays, and fossil embedded tiling, the use of decorative concrete was an inspiring and beautiful addition to the modern decor. Reaching from the floor to the ceiling, the pillared supports are stationed throughout the building, each approximately two feet in diameter. These beams display beauty in their simplicity. The slate colored pillars show multiple shades of gray. Their surfaces are smooth and slightly glossy. Small nicks are scattered across them, giving each of the pillars a unique finish. These beautiful structures are created with one unexpected medium: concrete. The production of the beams was a simple concept. The concrete was poured into large fiberglass forms in sections. As each section hardened, the next was poured. This created the variety of gray hues seen in the pillars. As it was poured, air pockets developed in the minute gap between the form and the concrete. These pockets created the nicks on the exterior of the pillars. Once a beam was entirely filled and hardened, the form was blasted off of the concrete and the surfaces were polished. The use of fiberglass played a significant role in the production of the concrete’s surface, giving it a marblelike finish. The practical use of concrete also provided an array of benefits in comparison to marble pillars. The concrete was a significant cost saving alternative in a budgeted remodel. It supplied a stronger and more stable beam. Concrete is also more durable than deteriorative marble. The comparison proved concrete to be an obvious choice in the production options. Considering the pillars described above in WID represent only one small aspect, in one building, on one college campus, the innovation of decorative concrete presents a wide range of opportunity. The possible uses of functional and decorative concrete are numerous: from furniture to flooring, both in exterior and interior design. The ingenuity of this design is an inspiring representation of the connection between the form, function, and beauty of concrete. McKenna Large is the daughter of associate board member Dan Large, FRC, LLC. She will be attending the University of Wisconsin-Madison this fall.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 4, 2012 For Further Information Contact: Rep. Robin Vos (608) 266-9171 SPEAKER-ELECT VOS ANNOUNCES COMMITTEE CHAIR ASSIGNMENTS The new speaker makes history by establishing two committees with bipartisan chairs. Madison …In an unprecedented move, Speaker-elect Robin Vos announced that two of the Assembly standing committees for the 101 st Wisconsin State Legislature will have bipartisan leadership. “Legislative committees are where most of the heavy lifting is done in creating legislation. I think that it’s important that we have a bipartisan approach on some key issues,” said Speaker-elect Vos. Rep. Travis Tranel (R-Cuba City) and Rep. Leon Young (D-Milwaukee) will chair the State and Federal Relations Committee. Rep. Chris Kapenga (R-Delafield) and Rep. Jill Billings (D-LaCrosse) will chair the Constitution and Ethics Committee. “The State and Federal Relations Committee was created in an attempt to maximize our ability to work together to find savings for taxpayers,” said Speaker-elect Vos. “The Constitution and Ethics Committee will work to find a bipartisan consensus when clarifying and amending the state’s ethics laws.” According to the Legislative Reference Bureau, it has been nearly 20 years since an Assembly standing committee had leaders from each party. In 1995-1996, Speaker David Prosser appointed Rep. Annette “Polly” Williams, a Milwaukee Democrat, as chair of the Urban Education Committee. i “I’m confident that the leaders of all the Assembly committees are ready to work across the aisle and make the tough decisions to address the issues facing our state,” said Speaker-elect Vos.

Howard Marklein receives advocacy group’s top honor MADISON, Wis. — The Dairy Business Association, Wisconsin’s leading dairy advocacy group, today announced that state Sen. Howard Marklein, R-Spring Green, is the organization’s Legislator of the Year. DBA pointed to important legislation Marklein championed, including funding for the Dairy Innovation Hub; truth-in-labeling for milk, other dairy products and meat; and more capital access for rural businesses, including dairy processors. “Senator Marklein has gone above and beyond to strengthen and promote Wisconsin’s dairy community. He recognized the importance of these issues and showed leadership in moving them forward,” DBA President Amy Penterman, who farms with her family in Thorp, said. The association also announced DBA Legislative Excellence Award recipients for the 2019-20 session. The award recognizes legislators for ongoing support for farmers, processors and the broader dairy community. “We greatly appreciate these individuals for keeping dairy issues top of mind at the Capitol. Their commitment is critical to growing and protecting a major part of Wisconsin’s economy and ensuring that our rural communities thrive,” Penterman said. Last week, DBA announced its top legislative priorities for the current session. Among them: securing ongoing funding for the Dairy Innovation Hub, a research initiative on the University of Wisconsin System’s three agricultural campuses; support for ongoing water quality efforts, including many proposals stemming from the Speaker’s Task Force on Water Quality; and advocating for protections of common terms like milk, cheese and hamburger on food packaging and labels.
