I don't think Wisconsin should become known as a state where we shoot cats.

In Wisconsin, We're at the forefront of research that might one day bring cures for diseases like Parkinsons and Alzheimers, and we must seize its great potential.

I've made more cuts than any governor has ever made.

From cutting back on state contracts to reducing the number of state cars, We're making state government smaller, smarter, more efficient, and more accountable.

Wisconsin's kids shouldn't be allowed to fail just because Washington is failing them.

As I've often said, Wisconsin's greatest strength continues to be the dedicated, hardworking people of our state. They go to work everyday, pay their taxes, and raise their kids with good, Midwestern values.

Going forward, my mind will be open to every solution - except one. We should not - we must not - and I will not - raise taxes.
