Thank you for that, Zach. Yes, I believe that people most mostly impacted by decisions should have a seat at the table when those big decisions matter the most. As governor, I would establish a statewide Advisory council made up of individuals from the disability community, whether that is caregivers, advocates, or disabled people, to directly inform of policy measures that we're going to make or things that have been proposed. I would also hold regular public listening sessions across the state of Wisconsin and expand digital access so more people can participate in everyday governance. (59:20–59:37)
