“Make America Great Again” alludes to a time when we as a nation were superb. It’s an era that no one can pin down under scrutiny since whichever time was great for some, was invariably horrendous for others.

Trump inherited a strong economy from Obama. Obama inherited one of the weakest in history from George W. Bush, who had inherited a strong one from Clinton. Biden inherited a weak economy from Trump, but will pass a strong one onto the next President.

It’s been proven repeatedly: Wisconsin has safe and secure elections with safeguards to ensure only eligible voters are voting. This amendment is just a way for legislators to create a problem that doesn’t exist and use fear as a tactic to further divide us.
Patt Heise, Williams Bay
Former president Donald Trump has tried to distance himself from Project 2025, the 922-page document from the ultraconservative Heritage Foundation, describing what the next Republican administration will do.

Joan shares my values and the values of Jefferson County and Wisconsin: Respectful communication with neighbors and constituents, hard working ethic to find solutions to improve the lives of as many citizens as possible, and reaching across the aisle to get things done.
State Representative Melissa Ratcliff
I am strongly supporting Joan Fitzgerald for State Assembly in District 46. This new district includes Fort Atkinson, Lake Mills, Cambridge, Cottage Grove, Marshall, and Waterloo. During her two terms on the Jefferson County Board, Joan supported rural communities and farmers.
