The Milwaukee/Minneapolis
It is with great pleasure we announce a unique opportunity for MDNA members and guests. This chapter meeting will be highlighted by the apperance of a tremendous individual on the regional and national political forefront, who has graciously volunteered her time to meet with us. Our guest speaker will be Rebecca Kleefisch, Lieutenant Governor of the State of Wisconsin.
Lieutenant Governor Kleefisch will discuss Wisconsin's business and economic climate, manufacturing conditions in Wisconsin, and what her office and the current administration are doing to attract businesses to Wisconsin.
Rebecca serves as Wisconsin's "Jobs Ambassador" and spearheads the Governor's Small Business Summits, listening and input sessions held all over the state. She chaired the Governor's Sub Cabinet on Workforce Investment that developed the "Wisconsin Working" plan, designed to connect the unemployed to jobs, encourage the hiring of veterans and address Wisconsin's graying manufacturing workforce. Rebecca serves as an economic development liaison and advocate for small business owners and chairs the newly-created Committee on Minority Unemployment.
The Lieutenant Governor is also known for her work on veterans' issues. She advocated for the declaration of 2012 as "The Year of the Veteran". The public/private partnership initiative honors, celebrates and offers opportunities to Wisconsin's heroes. Rebecca serves on the Manufacturing and STEM Committees of the Aerospace States Association. She has also been recognized as a champion for lower taxes by the National Tax Limitation Committee and The 60 Plus Association. She was recently presented a "Courage in Leadership Award" by the Faith & Freedom Coalition. Rebecca is a colon cancer survivor, a member of the NRA and graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She is the mother of two daughters, Ella and Violet. She lives in Oconomowoc with her husband, State Representative Joel Kleefisch.
