Debt and Deficit
Our national debt should be a frightening number to all Americans, and especially all lawmakers. Washington has a spending problem and we must act to restore fiscal responsibility. Congress needs a healthy dose of Wisconsin commonsense. Families in our state know how to balance their checkbooks, and it's time Congress does the same. We need to find common ground on addressing our mounting fiscal challenges.
