“I believe in science. We're going to bring back science to the state of Wisconsin.”

“I've always believed that what's best for our kids is what's best for our state. That's why I've dedicated my life to public service, working as an educator, a school administrator, a state superintendent, and now as a candidate for governor.”

“I've dedicated my entire career as an educator, principal, administrator and now as state superintendent toward solving problems, not picking fights.”

“I cannot support keeping our brave service men and women away from their families without a clear need or purpose that would actively benefit the people of Wisconsin or our nation.”

“Hard-working families in Wisconsin deserve a tax cut. But you also deserve for it to be done responsibly and to make sure we know how we're going to pay for it in the future.”

“I believe that the key to building a strong economy in Wisconsin starts with education. Every single kid in our state deserves access to a good public education, no matter their zip code.”

“An investment in our kids is an investment in our future. It strengthens our economy through workforce development, attracts new jobs, and builds new industries in our state.”

“Scott Walker has repeatedly failed to address our crumbling bridges and highways, which rank as some of the worst in the country, forcing communities to tax themselves even more to pay for basic road maintenance.”

“Robin Vos and Scott Fitzgerald want to have good public schools, good roads and good health care for the people of Wisconsin. We just have to find a way to do it. I think we can.”

“Education, transportation and health care was what I ran and won on. That's what we're going to be focused on.”

“It's really time for the State of Wisconsin to form a better relationship with the greater Milwaukee area.”

“But if President Trump's policies continue to negatively affect Wisconsin families, I won't cater to his demands or waver from my position. I will not be a doormat. I will fight for our state, our families and our values.”

“The bottom line is that the federal government is an important partner in addressing issues like funding our public schools, fixing our crumbling roads and infrastructure, protecting our natural resources and ensuring that healthcare is affordable and protects people with pre-existing conditions.”

“The whole issue of corrections is something that came up a lot, no matter where we were. I think people would expect that would be a Milwaukee issue, but it's an issue across the state, and that ties to so many other things.”

“I support the Second Amendment just like everybody else. It's not about taking guns away. It's about doing very simple things that will save lives.”

“I made a promise to you and the people of our state when I was running for governor: I promised I would cut taxes by 10% for middle-class families.”

“As I've said all along, I don't make promises I can't keep, and I won't propose things we can't pay for.”

“Doing what's best for our kids means having a governor that is prepared to reach across the political aisle to do what's best for the people of this state. We must care for each other.”

“There are plenty of issues President Trump and I don't agree on. I don't support shutting down our government over a border wall. I've been disgusted by his offensive remarks about women, immigrants and veterans, among others.”

“I need to stand up for the people of Wisconsin.”
