Wisconsin Assembly District 45 Candidate Townhall Thursday, October 20th

Rock County, WI (October 7, 2022) – Rock County First (RCF) is a non-profit organization (501c4) in Rock  County, WI whose vision is to protect liberty and freedom in its local communities by empowering the  citizens of Rock County through education and greater government accountability. This event is brought  you by the Rock County First Political Fund, which is an Independent Expenditure Committee. 

The 2022 mid-term election is coming upon us quickly as absentee voting has begun, early voting starts  on October 25th and the general election is November 8th. To learn more about the election, where to  vote and who is on your ballot, go to myvote.wi.gov for more information. 

On this year’s ballot, Rock County voters will be voting for Wisconsin Legislative candidates running for  State Assembly and State Senate. There are a number of competitive races for these positions which  will impact your representation in Madison. In order to help educate and inform Rock County citizens  on the candidates and their positions, RCF is hosting an Assembly District 45 candidate townhall where  both candidates will be discussing their positions on education, crime, the economy, and more. 

RCF cordially invited candidates from the other Rock County related Legislative races but each candidate  has decided, for various reasons, to not participate in similar townhall events. Should this change, an  update will be provided.  

Please plan on joining us Thursday, October 20th. Here are the details.

o Confirmed participants: Clint Anderson (D) and Jeff Klett (R) 

o Time: 7:00 pm

WHY DOES THE DPI SCORING MATTER? Like any successful business or individual, there needs to be some method to measure & compare performance and progress over time. The WI Department of Public Instruction (DPI) provides the only method for parents and citizens to track the performance and progress of their school district over time, as compared to other school districts. The DPI Scorecard is not a perfect tool to accomplish this objective, but it is the best available method today. Since parents and taxpayers deserve to have this accountability, and since DPI believes this program is not effective to measure and compare performance and progress, then it is incumbent on DPI to develop and provide a better assessment program and to make it consistent from one year to the next.

In federal and state legislative sessions and local town council meetings there is a common selling point for any new spending. New taxes and regulations are often sold as tools to “improve society,” “protect consumers,” or “level the playing field.” But beneath the glossy rhetoric lies a deeper, more troubling reality: each new mandate chips away at personal liberty, shrinks individual responsibility, and consolidates power in the hands of bureaucracies. The truth is simple but unpopular—freedom and government control are inversely related. Taxation is the most direct way governments reduce individual freedom. Every dollar a governmental body takes is a dollar we can’t spend, save, or invest in accordance with our own values and judgment.
