If legislators want to have real conversations about our kids’ achievement, they can start by fully funding our schools and making sure our kids can bring their full and best selves to the classroom. Our kids shouldn't just be getting by—they should be able to get ahead. #WISOTS
A kid in crisis isn’t going to be able to pay attention at school, finish their homework, or engage with their friends or teachers. That's why I'm announcing our #GetKidsAhead initiative to invest $15 million in additional mental health services to help support our kids.
Every school district can opt in to receive these funds—no matter how big or small. Whether it’s providing direct mental healthcare, hiring and supporting mental health navigators, or providing trauma-based care training, this investment will help with whatever our kids need.

Last month, I announced my plan to use our state's $3.8 billion surplus to help address rising costs, reduce barriers to work, and invest in education at every level, and tonight, I'm announcing I'll be calling a Special Session of the Legislature to pass that plan. #WISOTS
I know others want to leave your money in Madison until next summer while inflation is the highest it's been in 40 years.

Well, that won't help Wisconsin families buy groceries or gas, pay for childcare, heat their homes, or put food on the table today. Wisconsinites can’t wait.
Don’t sit here in a white, marble building with state coffers that are full and tell working Wisconsinites we can’t afford to do more. That's baloney. We can pass my plan and still have more than $2 billion left over.
