Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce (WMC), the combined state chamber of commerce and manufacturers’ association, presented Representative Tony Kurtz with a Working for Wisconsin Award. Rep. Kurtz was honored for his work during the most recent legislative session. The Working for Wisconsin Award recognizes legislators who supported specific pro-growth policies and earned a high rating on WMC’s biennial legislative scorecard.
The Working for Wisconsin Award is based on individual voting records, regardless of a legislator’s partisan affiliation. Legislators who earn the award each session supported pro-growth policies and reforms aimed at improving the state’s business climate. All Wisconsin legislators are considered for the award, but it is only earned by those who consistently vote to make Wisconsin a better place to do business. Working for Wisconsin Award winners must receive at least a 70 percent rating on the WMC Legislative Scorecard.
