We are mired in a tax and spend, over bloated, and out of control Government here in Wisconsin.

The Tea Party movement has inpired to work to change it from within. My pledge to you the people of Wisconsin is to :

1. First and foremost, operate and manage the duties of the office of Treasurer in an efficient and fair manner. I will not travel on the taxpayers dime, hire my friends and relatives, vacation during a crisis, charge the taxpayers for mileage I was not entitled to. The only thing I will accept from anyone is their vote on election day.

2. To work with Legislators and use the office of Treasurer to lobby for its elimination.

3. To observe from Madison the behind the scenes back room dealings at the Capitol and bring them out into the light of day through my personal (not state supported) Blog
