Education: “For years, we kept getting the same sedan in a different color. We prioritized participation over achievement and accountability and expectations kept getting lower. New school year - same problems.”
(Campaign website) Education: “The old sedan is missing a tire. More money is sent to schools, yet enrollment declines and administrative costs grow. The system is broken and our students deserve better.”
(Campaign website) Education: “A graduate of the Wisconsin School of Electronics with a degree in engineering and the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee with a degree in Business Administration, Joel built a career combining engineering, business, sales, and marketing. He worked in the Systems Division at Johnson Controls in engineering and later as a Marketing Manager.”

Public education & schools: “"We need leaders that protect Wisconsin's best asset - our citizens. I pledge to fight for IVF and reproductive healthcare rights, and protect our environment as a loud advocate for our parks and wild spaces. I am a Wisconsin mom, and a proud supporter of our schools, and the neighborhoods that make our wider Milwaukee-area family uniquely blessed."”
(Campaign website (accessed Oct 23, 2026)) Public education & schools: “Fair access to quality healthcare and our state's medical schools are under constant attack from Republican leaders in Wisconsin. Our healthcare professionals cannot provide the best level of care, and we cannot continue to attract world-class talent, while Wisconsin has laws from the 1800s dictating a mother's access to care. My constituents demand better, and I fight hard for them.”
