  • Margaret Farrow Wisconsin Women Making History
    WISCONSIN THEIR STORIES WOMEN MAKING OUR LEGACY HISTORY www.womeninwisconsin.org MARGARET FARROW 1934-present City: Kenosha County: Kenosha Margaret Farrow was the first woman to serve as lieutenant governor in Wisconsin. Farrow attended Dominican Sisters of St. Catherine High School in Racine before going to Rosary College in Illinois. She earned a bachelor's degree in political science and education from Marquette University. She began her career in government as the trustee (1976-1981) and then the president (1981-1987) of Elm Grove Village. Farrow was elected to the Wisconsin State Assembly in 1986. Three years later, she was elected to the Wisconsin State Senate from a district comprising most of Waukesha county. She was re-elected in 1990, !1994, and 1998. In 2001, Farrow, a Republican, was appointed the 42nd lieutenant governor of Wisconsin after Scott McCallum, who had held that office, became governor upon the departure of Tommy Thompson. Farrow was the first woman to hold the office, which is the first leadership position in the line of succession after the governor of Wisconsin. Farrow spearheaded two statewide commissions to advance reforms that reduce the cost of government, and she played a leadership role in reforming welfare and tax policy to encourage work, saving, investment, innovation, capital formation, labor force productivity, and economic growth. She chaired the Wisconsin Women’s Council for several years and served as a member during her tenure as lieutenant governor. Farrow also chaired the governor’s work-based learning board and co-chaired the governor’s task force on invasive species. She has chaired the board of WisconsinEye, a public affairs television network; and in 2013, !she was appointed to the University of Wisconsin System Board of Regents.

  • 2013-2014 Wisconsin Blue Book
    STATISTICS: HISTORY 677 HIGHLIGHTS OF HISTORY IN WISCONSIN History — On May 29, 1848, Wisconsin became the 30th state in the Union, but the state’s written history dates back more than 300 years to the time when the French first encountered the diverse Native Americans who lived here. In 1634, the French explorer Jean Nicolet landed at Green Bay, reportedly becoming the first European to visit Wisconsin. The French ceded the area to Great Britain in 1763, and it became part of the United States in 1783. First organized under the Northwest Ordinance, the area was part of various territories until creation of the Wisconsin Territory in 1836. Since statehood, Wisconsin has been a wheat farming area, a lumbering frontier, and a preeminent dairy state. Tourism has grown in importance, and industry has concentrated in the eastern and southeastern part of the state. Politically, the state has enjoyed a reputation for honest, efficient government. It is known as the birthplace of the Republican Party and the home of Robert M. La Follette, Sr., founder of the progressive movement. Political Balance — After being primarily a one-party state for most of its existence, with the Republican and Progressive Parties dominating during portions of the state’s first century, Wisconsin has become a politically competitive state in recent decades. The Republicans gained majority control in both houses in the 1995 Legislature, an advantage they last held during the 1969 session. Since then, control of the senate has changed several times. In 2009, the Democrats gained control of both houses for the first time since 1993; both houses returned to Republican control in 2011.

  • Celebrates Primary Election Victory, Republican Nomination for Fifth Congressional District
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE August 11, 2020 Contact: [email protected] Scott Fitzgerald Issues Primary Election Night Statement Celebrates primary election victory, Republican nomination for fifth congressional district [Juneau, WI] — Today, Wisconsin Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald clinched a decisive victory in the Republican primary for Wisconsin's fifth congressional district. He goes on to the November General Election after securing today's primary victory. “I'm so grateful for the outpouring of support that we've received in the months since launching my bid for congress, and we're overwhelmed by today's decisive victory," said Fitzgerald. "The steadfast support we've received from the grassroots leaders of Wisconsin's Fifth and conservatives from all over Wisconsin has been instrumental to my campaign so far. We're looking forward to carrying this positive momentum into victory in November, and helping to win Wisconsin for President Trump." "I entered this race because I wanted to bring the common-sense, conservative reforms that we’ve championed here in Wisconsin to Washington," added Fitzgerald. "The events of recent months have further cemented the idea that we need experienced, proven conservative leaders in Congress to stand with our Commander in Chief and protect our democracy. I’m excited to bring my years of experience championing conservative reforms to our nation’s capital, where I’ll fight alongside President Trump to clean up the dysfunction, get people back to work, and keep Wisconsin families safe." Fitzgerald is seeking the seat currently held by retiring Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner, the dean of Wisconsin's congressional delegation and longtime representative of the district.
