Felzkowski Appointed to Joint Committee on Finance FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 1, 2020 CONTACT: Rep. Mary Felzkowski 608-266-7694 Madison, WI- Senator-Elect Mary Felzkowski (R-Tomahawk) released the following statement regarding her appointment to serve on the Legislature’s Joint Committee on Finance (JFC) during the 2021-22 Legislative Session: “I am honored to be entrusted with this responsibility and thank Majority Leader-Elect LeMahieu for putting his trust in me. I will use my previous finance experience and my role as a small business owner to guide me in making fiscally conservative and responsible decisions.” Senator-Elect Felzkowski previously served two terms on the Joint Committee on Finance as a Representative for the 35th Assembly District. The budgets crafted during her previous terms led to Wisconsin ending its fiscal biennia with surpluses, while also investing historically high levels in the state’s Rainy Day Fund. “I look forward to serving under Co-Chair Howard Marklein, who brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the position, and with my colleagues Senator Duey Stroebel, Senator Dale Kooyenga, Senator-Elect Joan Ballweg, and Senator Kathy Bernier, a team with strong female representation. It has never been more important for us to make the hard decisions that will keep our state financially heathy, and I am confident in our team’s ability to make the right choices for the people of Wisconsin.” In January, Senator-Elect Felzkowski will begin her first term serving the 12th Senate District, one of the most rural Senate districts, including eleven counties in northern Wisconsin. “Wisconsin has been extremely blessed to have strong northern conservative voices on JFC in past budget cycles and I look forward to continuing to carry that torch. I am eager to get to work and expand on the strong foundation we’ve built over the last decade.” ### The 12th State Senate District includes all of Florence, Forest, Langlade, Lincoln, Menominee, and Oneida Counties and parts of Marathon, Marinette, Oconto, Shawano, and Vilas Counties. .

This was the largest class of women legislators in state history. Women now hold 31 percent of the seats in the Wlegislature. Previously, the largest number of women to serve in a session was 37, a num- ber reached in the 1989 and 2003 sessions. Including those serving in the senate and the assembly today, a total of 152 women have now been seated in the Wisconsin Legislature. Among all states, Wisconsin currently has the 22nd-highest proportion of women serv- ing in its legislature.1 This paper celebrates the service, achievements, and leadership of Wisconsin women legislators. Women in the assembly When Mildred Barber, Helen Brooks, and Helen Thompson took office in January 1925 as “assemblymen”—members of the assembly were formally renamed “representatives” in 1969 2—they became the first women to serve in the Wisconsin Legislature. Until the 1970s, no more than three women at a time served in the assembly, and during some sessions, no women served in the assembly at all.3 Of the 31 women elected to serve in 2021–22, 10 are in their first session.

Ballweg (608) 266-8077 Lawmakers Announce Launch of Children’s Caucus Bipartisan group will focus on evidence-based policy MADISON – To mark National Child Abuse Prevention Month, a group of bipartisan legislators headed by State Senator Julie Lassa (D-Stevens Point) and Representative Joan Ballweg (R-Markesan) announced the organization of the first Wisconsin Legislative Children’s Caucus. The goal of the caucus will be to research and advocate for promising, evidence-based public policy that will improve the quality of life for all Wisconsin's children, the lawmakers said. “The Wisconsin Legislative Children’s Caucus was developed over several months and with the input of several legislators and community stakeholders,” said Rep. Ballweg. “On behalf of Sen. Lassa and myself, we’d like to thank everyone who has collaborated with us to bring this important issue to the forefront.” “Children are our most precious resource, and their well-being has a tremendous impact on the health of our entire society,” Sen. Lassa said. “That’s why I’m pleased that the Children’s Caucus will bring legislators together to meet with well-respected researchers and economists, and explore how to translate their latest findings into model public policy.” In preparation for launching the caucus, members have met with expert researchers in such areas as adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), the economics of investing in early childhood education, and the science of early childhood brain development to explore what public policies will make a difference in addressing these issues.
