Here are my thoughts. The staff should never be the story because the staff's name is not on the door. I was elected by 750,000 Wisconsinites to represent them. Those folks are staff. They have the right of free speech, but they must understand that they don't write and dictate policy. The elected representatives, my Democrat colleagues and I are chartered to write policy. Our staff is not. (03:49–03:56)
