Free, fair, and secure elections are the foundation of our democracy. We must ensure every legal vote counts while maintaining public confidence.

I trust our local election officials and support commonsense safeguards like voter ID, accurate voter rolls, and clear, consistent rules. When elections are conducted lawfully, the results should be respected.

Marty supports pro-growth policies that empower small businesses to expand and create jobs, while keeping taxes low and tackling the rising cost of housing—so working families can afford to live, work, and put down roots in Wisconsin.

Marty believes every life is precious. He is 100% pro-life and supports pro-life efforts across Wisconsin and the nation.

Hunting and fishing are a proud part of Wisconsin’s heritage and way of life.

I support protecting access to public lands and waterways so future generations can enjoy the outdoors. 

Hunters and anglers play a key role in conservation—funding wildlife and habitat efforts through licenses and fees.

Our outdoor heritage is worth protecting—for today and for generations to come.

The right to keep and bear arms, protected by the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution, is a fundamental freedom.

I support the rights of law-abiding citizens to own firearms for self-defense, hunting, and sport. Here in Wisconsin, that’s part of our heritage.

We should focus on enforcing laws against violent criminals—not placing new burdens on responsible gun owners. I oppose sweeping bans and broad restrictions that undermine constitutional rights without improving public safety.

The University of Wisconsin System plays a key role in preparing students and strengthening our workforce.

Marty supports keeping costs down and limiting tuition increases while ensuring students get a high-quality education. He believes campuses should promote viewpoint diversity and open dialogue.

He also supports tying funding to results—like graduation rates and workforce needs—while reducing administrative bloat so more resources go to students.

A strong education starts with parents, local control, and a focus on student success.

Marty supports parental rights and school choice, including charter schools and vouchers, so families can choose what’s best for their children. He believes classrooms should focus on the basics—reading, math, and civics—while limiting political or ideological content.

Putting students first means empowering parents and preparing every child to succeed.

Supporting law enforcement, firefighters, and first responders is a top priority. Marty’s experience with the Police and Fire Commission gives him real insight into what’s needed.

Wisconsin’s future depends on strong communities and strong connections. By investing wisely in infrastructure, we can keep our economy growing and ensure our state remains a great place to live, work, and raise a family.

Agriculture is the backbone of Wisconsin’s economy and way of life.

Marty supports family farms by reducing unnecessary regulations and protecting farmland from foreign ownership concerns. He believes farmers should have fair access to markets and the opportunity to grow and succeed.

Investing in rural infrastructure—like roads and broadband—helps keep farms connected and communities strong.

Strong farms mean a stronger Wisconsin.
