Republicans have big plans as they assume control of the State Senate and Assembly in January — and that includes South Milwaukee’s Mark Honadel.
Check out the full story from BizTimes.com here. From it:
Rep. Mark Honadel (R-South Milwaukee) says his immediate pet priorities include: eliminating millions of dollars of current fraud in the Wisconsin Shares program; demanding a “top to bottom” evaluation of state agencies to justify their spending and eliminate vacant positions; and launching mediation arbitration reform to provide local government the tools they need to control costs, reduce spending and make reforms of their own.
Also, Honadel has been named chairman of the Assembly’s Committee on Energy and Utilities, where he summarizes his priorities as “focusing on competition and job creation, as well as the overall needs and priorities of our state’s energy, utilities, and telecommunications services so that businesses and consumers can thrive in our state economy.” Learn more here.
