I am asking you to hire me as your next State Senator, to fill the shoes of retiring David Craig. I believe our state needs strong leadership and you need a strong voice that shares your values.
LET'S GET WISCONSIN WORKING AGAIN!
We need to roll back expensive regulations that cost everyone more. Not only is this a burden on our families' budgets, it is a burden on our job creating businesses, large and small. We need to balance our state budget without raising taxes. Cutting taxes would be even better.
Please call me at 414-324-9935 or contact me at: Steve.Bobowski@BobowskiforSenator.org if you have a question would like to help. If you hire me, my door and ears will always be open to help you.
Steve Bobowski
YOUR VOICE -YOUR VALUES-YOUR SENATOR
- Business Advocate
- Strong Fiscal Conservative
- Taxpayer Champion
BUSINESS ADVOCATE
As former President of Riddell Sports, General Motor's Licensing Agency and have owned small businesses, I know firsthand, how important it is to cut unnecessary, job-killing red tape. Now is the time to lead the needed recovery from the economic damages caused by Covid-19. These are my top priorities. Government should work with - not against businesses while protecting individuals and the environment. Our state needs to do everything we can to help businesses grow and succeed. A successful economy benefits every economic level. It means jobs.
STRONG FISCAL CONSERVATIVE
We must balance our state's budget without raising taxes. Post Covid-19 this is going to be challenging. This requires setting priorities and making tough decisions. I am committed to reigning in government spending, incentivizing job creation and streamlining regulations. Just like we and our families do, government must live within its means.
TAXPAYER CHAMPION
I will fight to keep reasonable taxing and spending limits on schools and governments. Limits which require voters to approve any tax increases. You know how to spend your hard-earned money better than government.
Gun Rights
I support the Second Amendment. People have the right to protect themselves, their home, and their property.
PRO-LIFE
Vince's inspirational "What it takes to be #1". You have got to pay the price. Winning is not a sometime thing. It's an all the time thing. You don't win once in a while. You don't do things right once in awhile. You do them right all the time. Winning is a habit. Unfortunately so too is losing.
It is and always has been an American zeal to be first in anything we do, and to win, and to win, and to win.
While on Football Scholarship, Steve earned his BA and Master of Management from Northwestern University, Kellogg School of Business. He was selected as Captain, Outstanding Leader, Academic All-Big Ten and Academic All-American Honorable Mention.
Dale Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People". If we had more "Positivity" and an "In What Way Can We Approach" (IWWCW), it will be amazing at what we can accomplish.
The book fosters Communication Skills, People Skills, Leadership Skills and Self-Confidence so people will work together for exceptional personal, community and business success. Key Insights include:
- Don't Criticize, Condemn or Complain. (If it bothers you, fix it)
- Try honesty to see things from the other person's point of view.
- Show honest and sincere appreciation.
Captain America. I worked for Marvel Entertainment.
"All things being equal people like to do business with people they like".
"All things being equal being unequal, people like to do business with people they like"
And, show me how much you care before you tell me how smart you are"We are in the business of getting things done. Let's put points on the board!
I believe a good economy is good for all.
