“It is a true honor and a privilege for me to be sworn in as the Senator for the 14^th Senate District today. As I took the oath of office, I was filled with gratitude and pride that the people of the 14^th Senate District have entrusted me to be their voice in the State Capitol.

“When I was campaigning this fall, I heard from folks all across the 14^th Senate District about the issues that matter most to them. Among these were improving support for our small, rural communities; investing in mental health services and facilities; protecting and improving our public education system; and providing access to affordable childcare. I am thrilled that my specific committee assignments will allow me to work directly on these issues that are important both to my district and to me personally.

“As I begin my work as a State Senator, working collaboratively across the aisle is one of my top priorities. I am committed to advocating for commonsense, bipartisan solutions to the issues facing South Central Wisconsin and providing excellent service to constituents of the 14^th Senate District. I am eager to get to work and engage on the important issues that will come before us during the 2025-26 Legislative Session.”
