Campaign themes

2016

Kossik's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[1]

“ Education
  • Public education is the foundation of a sound economy
  • Educational opportunity is the best means to ensure individual and family well-being
  • Education empowers and develops the talents and abilities of our citizens
  • An educated citizenry is indispensable to a thriving democracy
  • A modern science and technological based education is a prerequisite for a 21st century economy
  • Sound educational institutions are major contributors to the health and prosperity of our communities

Environment

  • Bad environmental policy for the sake of immediate gains is economically disastrous
  • Environmental contamination can have a catastrophic impact on human health
  • Clean alternative energy is the economic future and is essential to reclaiming a healty environment
  • The contamination and privatization of water is an enormous economic and environmental threat to our health and well being
  • The recent of elimination of public support for our state and local parks will diminish the appeal and increase fees, hurting both local families and tourism
  • The current emphasis on cost rather than on value has resulted in reduced enforcement, investigation and scientific research to the dramatic detriment of our environment
  • We have turned over the protection and fate of our environment to the polluters

Economy

  • The politicization of labor rights has resulted in dramatically reduced wages and disposable income which has harmed economic vitality
  • Low wage jobs are hurting our economy by creating more families who are dependent on public support and are unable to contribute to increased prosperity
  • Current tax policy, which makes the rich richer at the expense of the vast majority of our citizens, is neither social justice or sound economic policy
  • Increased indebtedness, combined with stagnant wages, is killing our economy by preventing more and more working families from being able to afford homes, vehicles, vacations and achieving a standard of living that once defined the American way of life
  • Our depressed economy, hostile work environment, and declining of quality life is driving our young and talented people away in droves to other states in search of greater opportunity and a better life
  • Although Wisconsin and Minnesota are similar in culture, population and natural resources, Minnesota has thrived while Wisconsin has deteriorated, largely because of political leadership and public policy[2]
