Walker Campaign Releases New 30 Second Ad

[Madison, WI] – Republican Party of Wisconsin Executive Director Stephan Thompson released the following statement today on a new 30 second television ad that features Jeff, a father and elementary school teacher, who shares from his personal perspective the positive results of Governor Walker’s reforms:

“Jeff’s testimony shines a spotlight on the scare tactics employed by Big Government union bosses and debunks their bogus myths that distract from the fact Governor Walker’s reforms are working for taxpayers,” Thompson said. “Because of Governor Walker, our school districts and local governments are saving Wisconsin citizens hundreds of millions of dollars without the massive layoffs seen in other states, while preserving a great education for our kids. Thanks to people like Jeff, the truth has a chance to get out.”

Jeff, father and teacher:

“When the state budget passed in Madison, a lot of us thought we might lose our jobs.

“We figured if we didn’t get laid off, our class sizes would become unmanageable. But that didn’t happen.

“I don’t agree with Governor Walker on everything, but thanks to his budget reforms, hundreds of teachers like me still have their job.”

Governor Scott Walker:

“I’m committed to working together to create more jobs, to improve our schools, and to protect our seniors. Wisconsin’s best days are yet to come. It won’t happen overnight, but we are on our way.”
