For years, many of Wisconsin’s soybean farmers have had to look out of state for processing their yields, but not anymore. I was glad to join CHS Inc. to celebrate their new processing facility in Evansville that will be a boon for the local economy and farmers.

Republicans want to send public funds to private schools with: ❌ No student achievement metrics ❌ No school accountability measures ❌ No minimum or maximum scholarship size ❌ No certain end date ❌ No federal cap on spending YOUR tax dollars That's a NO ❌ from me.

Wisconsinites will believe it when we see it. Clearly, President Trump and Congressman Tiffany are continuing to play politics with emergency aid that’s meant to help communities recover in the wake of disasters like tornadoes and floods. That’s Complete and Total Bullshit.

That's 45,000 small business owners, farmers, seniors, families, and Wisconsinites across our state who were priced out and kicked off their healthcare coverage because Republicans in Congress refused to make healthcare more affordable for working families.

Even with sky-high diesel prices, kids still have to get to school, groceries still have to be delivered to stores, crops still have to be harvested, and garbage still has to be picked up. President Trump's out-of-control costs hurt everyone.

That’s a wrap on Cabinet on the Road 2026! Hearing directly from Wisconsinites is one of the most important parts of my job as governor—and we can connect the dots better when the whole team does it together! Nothing beats a day in the best darn state with the best darn team.

President Trump and Republicans are not only driving up costs on groceries, they've gut programs that help families keep food on the table. Because of Republicans, there are kids, families, and seniors in Wisconsin and across America going hungry today. Shameful.

Linda's right. Chaotic tariff taxes and uncertainty caused by trade wars won’t help our farmers—and their work putting food on the table here at home and the world over is hard enough as it is.
