Outspoken critic of increased spending & new government jobs

Glenn was a leader in pushing to turn Wisconsin's $3.6 billion deficit into a budget surplus. Glenn firmly believes that our elected officials must be good stewards of the people's money. He has been an outspoken critic of increased spending and new government jobs, fighting both during the 2011&2013 state budget debates. In Washington, Glenn will fight to reduce government spending, eliminate unused & unneeded government jobs, and implement a plan to reduce the burden of debt on future generations.
