Radcliffe received his JD from the Hamline University School of Law, and BS from the University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point. He currently works as a Village Attorney for Alma Center.[1]
On his campaign site Radcliffe listed his top issues as:[2]
- 1. Economy - "Creating jobs and industry that works here in Wisconsin needs to be of primary concern."
- 2. Health Care - "I propose that if elected I will donate my state health insurance to one of my constituents and demand that all citizens of the State of Wisconsin be given the same access to health care coverage, based on ability to pay…i.e…in a way fundamentally fair."
- 3. Do What Is Right - "If elected my promise is to work tirelessly to educate myself on all decisions brought before me so that the choice I make is a choice for what is right for the people of the State of Wisconsin."
- 4. Education - "Quality public education is essential for building for the future in Wisconsin."
- 5. Agriculture - "If elected I will strongly support all farmers. I propose a better financial lending program for those who want to get into farming."
- 6. Action over words - "what we really need out of our government and leaders is the follow through to make sure the ideas are implemented…to get them beyond just the “nice concept” phase."
- 7. Veterans - "With our military engagements in Iraq and Afghanistan producing thousands of veterans with active duty war time service, we need to pay special attention to the needs of all veterans."
- 8. Local municipalities - "State government needs to support the local municipalities. One way to do this is to avoid forcing unfunded mandates on local municipalities."
