Statement on Governor Doyle’s State of State Address
“I’m encouraged by Governor Doyle’s comments about economic development and job creation. He was among the early and enthusiastic Democratic supporters of the angel and venture investment initiatives that are now the envy of our neighboring states. It’s clear that we should continue to build on that momentum, which is why I co-authored the CORE Jobs Act, which the Senate passed last week by a vote of 32-1.”
