Make A Difference, and Say No to Tax Hikes!

http://www.ronjohnsonforsenate.com/

This week, Ron is collecting signatures for a petition to tell President Obama “no tax hikes” as he visits Wisconsin. The 2001 & 2003 tax hikes will expire late this year, meaning 2011 will be the year of new taxes if we don’t stand up to the tax and spend crowd in Washington. Sign the Petition here: http://tinyurl.com/25mv7le! Ron will also be travelling to Victory Centers across the state on Saturday to promote RPW’s “Summer Showdown” event, where volunteers will attempt to make contact with 100,000 Wisconsin voters!

A Clean Sweep for Pro-Life: from Dave Ross for Lieutenant Governorr

How valuable is just one life? In one life, it's impossible to measure its potential, productivity, creativity, imagination, inspiration, motivation, emotion, connection, relationships and so forth. As you can see, the list of words describing the value of a life is, in itself, endless. For more please go to: http://tinyurl.com/2aestor.

Rebecca went to the Governor's office this week to deliver the train petitions you had filled out. "I promised I'd deliver them myself into the Governor's hands," Rebecca noted, " but it turns out the Governor wasn't available. When it comes to our voice and the train, it seems the Governor is rarely available."

Senator Joe Leibham Named Wisconsin
American Legion Legislator of the Year



Senator Joe Leibham Named Wisconsin American Legion Legislator of the Year

State Senator Joe Leibham has been named the 2010 Legislator of the Year by the Wisconsin America Legion. The award was presented to Senator Leibham as a part of the 92nd annual Wisconsin American Legion Convention that was held in Wausau on July 16-18.


In presenting the award, Leo Endres, Department Commander, said Senator Leibham was selected due to his outstanding leadership in support of the Wisconsin American Legion and its members. "Senator Leibham has demonstrated an untiring commitment to Wisconsin veterans," Commander Endres said. "Because of his dedication, Wisconsin veterans and their families have a collection of benefits that will protect them well into the future.”


Senator Leibham, who has authored and supported numerous military/veteran legislative proposals over the past year, said he was honored to accept the award. "I am humbled by this recognition. While the award is appreciated, it really is unnecessary. The liberties, freedoms and security provided to me and my family due to the service and sacrifice of our military personnel, both past and present, are awesome awards received each day," Senator Leibham said. "I will continue represent our area by ensuring that the benefits and programs that we provide to our veterans and their families are maintained and enhanced."


Senator Leibham was also recognized for his leadership on veteran's issues by Sheboygan American Legion Post #83 during their Spring Banquet in May. Post 83 1st Vice Commander Greg Eirich from Sheboygan and a number of other area Legionnaires joined Senator Leibham at the awards program.

Senator Leibham Responds to State Supreme Court
Decision on Patient’s Compensation Fund Raid



Senator Joe Leibham

STATE CAPITOL — Earlier today, the Wisconsin Supreme Court announced that a $200 million raid on the Injured Patients and Families Compensation Fund (IPFCF) by Governor Jim Doyle and the State Legislature was an unconstitutional taking of private property and must be reversed. This raid was approved in October 2007 as a part of the 2007-09 state budget.


In response to the Supreme Court’s 5-2 decision, State Senator Joe Leibham (R-Sheboygan) issued the following statement:


"I have argued since voting against this provision that it was an unconstitutional taking, so I strongly support the Court’s ruling that seeks to uphold the constitutional right of private property. Those who blindly supported Governor Jim Doyle in approving this provision have violated their Oath of Office – which is to uphold the State Constitution – and they need to be held accountable for their actions and for the budget mess they have created."


Editor's Note: What was Rep. Terry Van Akkeren vote on this raid on the Compensation Fund?
