First Responder of the Year nominations sought
MADISON, WIS (CIVIC MEDIA) – Rep. Tony Kurtz is seeking nominations for the 41st Assembly District’s 2025 First Responder of the Year.
Eligible First Responders can either live in the 41st Assembly District, or reside outside of the district and serve one of the communities in the 41st Assembly District. “First responder” is meant to include the broader category of responders that includes police and sheriff officers, firefighters, and EMS personnel.
You can nominate a deserving person for a variety of reasons including: a specific heroic action; a significant professional achievement; something special they do for the community through their work; his or her body of work over time; and/or his or her length of service.
To have your local hero be eligible, return a nomination form no later than Friday, September 19. A winner from within the assembly district will then be selected and he or she will be invited to a special recognition ceremony in the Assembly.
To receive a nomination form, please email rep.kurtz@legis.wi.gov.
