Representative Allen to Run for Reelection in the 97th Assembly District

(Waukesha, WI) – Rep. Scott Allen (R-Waukesha) announced today that he will be seeking reelection to his second term. First elected in 2014 in a competitive primary election, Allen intends to keep government reform and economic growth as the focus in the upcoming term.

In 2014 Allen campaigned on a platform of continuing conservative reforms to state government to promote economic expansion. The legislature during this last term passed civil service reform making employment with the state more in line with private sector practices, significantly repealed prevailing wage laws allowing local governments to complete construction projects at competitive prices and thus keeping taxes low, and passed legislation making Wisconsin the 25th state in the nation to become a right-to-work state, therefore enhancing worker freedom and keeping Wisconsin attractive to new employers.

Rep. Allen has been working on the Speaker’s Task Force for Urban Education and plans to continue to research and formulate policy ideas that can improve educational outcomes for urban school children. “For us to be competitive in the 21st century we need to improve our human capital. Our economic limitations seem to be largely workforce related. We need to have our students career ready upon graduation,” said Allen.

The other major economic limitation, according to Rep. Allen, is transportation infrastructure. “It is time we secure a stable funding solution to our transportation infrastructure needs, economic expansion depends on it,” stated Allen.

Rep. Allen emphasized, “Our job in the legislature is to find the kinks in the hose and get rid of them. By doing so, well allow economic prosperity to flow.”

The representative is currently circulating nomination papers. Anyone wishing to help may contact the campaign through the website, www.allenforwisconsin.com.

It is now time to focus on the November General Elections, and we look forward to working with Republican candidates throughout the state. It is essential that we remain focused on keeping Wisconsin’s economy Open for Business with the Republican policies of a limited, more efficient government, and pro-business growth strategies. Governor Walker’s reforms are working, and it is imperative that we reelect Scott Walker this November.

Same Sex Ruling Unfortunate

The ruling by Judge Crabb regarding same sex marriage is disappointing. The incomplete nature of Judge Crabb’s ruling is either intentional or incompetent. I suspect it is the former. It has created a lot of confusion and uncertainty across the state.

It is unfortunate today that it seems every political issue has to be tampered with by an over-active judiciary.

I have confidence in the ability of Wisconsin Attorney General JB Van Hollen to handle the legal matters for the state competently and efficiently.

Heterosexuals have laid claim to the word marriage, and, as a legislator, I will protect that claim. I believe that marriage is between one man and one woman. This relationship is natural and sacred.

Homosexuals are free citizens of our country and are deserving of fairness and respect. A just society does not discriminate against any one group of people. It does not extend benefits to one group while not extending the same benefits to all groups. A just society protects individual liberties and every person’s right to pursue happiness within the confines of the law.

I support the actions of the voters of Wisconsin when they acted to amend the State Constitution in 2006. There is a political process where the people of Wisconsin have a say in the law, and I wholeheartedly support that legitimate process.
