Jamie Lee Weigel almost starved her infant to death. But under @GovEvers COVID plan, prisoners like her will be eligible for a vaccine before a 35 yr old breast cancer survivor from Wausau. What is Gov. Evers thinking? https://t.co/2xxxIxBh2W
Juan Maravilla is in WI prison because of abuse to a one yr old that the judge called "torture," but under @GovEvers vaccine plan, he'll qualify for a vaccine before a 50-yr-old cancer survivor from Green Bay. That's immoral. https://t.co/aE7dG8bUPw
Christopher Kaphaem was convicted of abusing 9 infants in a Madison hospital’s newborn intensive care unit, but @GovEvers thinks he deserves a COVID vaccine before a 60-year-old grandmother with diabetes. That's absurd. https://t.co/sPP2DGF1IT
Demetrius Williams admitted to murdering his ex-girlfriend's 3-yr-old and attempting to murder her. Under @GovEvers vaccine plan, prisoners like Williams will have access to a vaccine before most mothers in Wisconsin. That's just wrong. https://t.co/YjkbhDA7xh
$500M debunked in 2018. Mead Hunt sourced from 1 non-comparable site in MN. State would SAVE $100M+ w/ new prison + $50M more for a REIT version. Summary: Ancient prisons are money pits w/ higher staff assaults and higher recidivism rates.
The Assembly passed a bill today that would provide $1.2M to Green Bay to help the city relocate the coal piles, upgrade its port and add more development along the Fox River. https://t.co/knBztq0Cnc
Thanks to @repsteffen and Rep. @StaushG for their successful bipartisan effort. Looking forward to a positive vote in the state Senate in the near future!
The #Wisconsin State Assembly welcomes Father Ubald Rugirangogaof of Rwanda who provided the invocation for today's floor session. He is a guest of @repsteffen. We're honored to have him here to share his story and lead us in our opening prayer.
We are so excited to officially open the doors of our new branch office in @GreenBayWis! Thank you to @MayorGenrich, @repsteffen, @GGBChamber, and everyone else who helped us celebrate our ribbon cutting this morning. #ThePlaceToBe
Senate Bill 295, which I’ve authored with @RepSteffen to provide state Harbor Assistance Program funding to support the planning and relocation of Green Bay's coal piles, was heard in a Senate committee and was recommended for passage by an Assembly committee this week.
Yesterday, the Joint Committee on Finance passed @SenRobCowles and my budget motion which funds the first phase of replacing GBCI. The $5 million approved yesterday, now gives us a clear path and timeline for a safer, more cost-effective solution to this problem.
Local and state officials will ask for $1.5 million in the state budget dedicated to relocating the coal piles in Green Bay. Story tk on @gbpressgazette.
I was happy to support @SenRobCowles motion to offset the increasing costs for police services rendered to Green Bay Correctional Institution. This is great news for the 4th Assembly District!
Today we will be passing one of the most cost-effective workforce development bills in the history of Wisconsin. I could not be prouder to vote for my bill on the floor today. #pathwaystoemployment
“Today we’re going to be passing one of the most cost-effect workforce developments ever in the history of the state of Wisconsin." - Rep. David Steffen on bill granting expungement of low-level crimes after completion of sentence. #wiright#wipolitics#wibudget@repsteffen
.@afpwi The Assembly is scheduled to break down barriers reformed individuals face through expungement reform today. We're all better off if these folks can contribute to society through gainful employment and reach their full potential. @repsteffen@RepGoyke@SenDarling
I was very happy to be a part of the @MActionProject Red & Blue Dialogue with @StaushG and @MayorGenrich. There was a lot of positive bipartisan conversation around improving water quality in our state.
