There's teacher shortages everywhere and just overall education has plummeted and we really need to fix that. The second thing that I'm really committed to is lowering taxes for all Wisconsinites, not just the rich. You guys have been paying a lot of taxes for ever since Trump took office two years ago. We need to make sure you guys don't get kicked out of your houses and are actually able to use your money to what you need to buy and pay rent and gas and everything like that. (05:39–05:47)
