farmland for being purchased by foreign entities have elected as Wisconsin governor in November.
He also shared his thoughts on the state's farmland being used for things like solar fields, wind-based power generation, and increasingly common data center developments.
We have these massive solar fields that are being built in Wisconsin, giant wind turbines, and now data centers.
And it simply doesn't make sense that we would turn our beautiful farmland over to these developments when it's unnecessary.
And also, we should make sure that local people have a say in this.
School funding is another topic that will be at the forefront of voters' minds in the November election.
Asked how he plans to lower property taxes that have skyrocketed due to school referendums while also providing those districts with the funding they need to maintain their services if elected, Congressman Tiffany cited increases in the state budget over recent years as evidence that the state legislature can provide local municipalities with that funding.
There's plenty of money in Madison to be able to help out locals.
Madison does not have a revenue problem.
It has a spending problem.
And it's time for Madison to help out those local municipalities and make sure that they have sufficient funding, including through shared revenue, that they can carry out what they need to get done.
The Republican congressman will face off with Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley, now the Democratic nominee in the race for Wisconsin governor, in the November midterm election.

The Wapaka County Fair starts today in Waiowiga, but there won't be any horses on display.
County fairs across Wisconsin are canceling exhibits and rescheduling equine events due to a highly contagious horse disease.
WAPACA County Fair officials sent a letter to 4-H members and their parents that the equine exhibit has been canceled for this year's fair and the horse and pony project is being rescheduled for a later date.
Equine strangles is a highly infectious respiratory infection.
At least one, maybe more, horses in Wopaka County has been exposed to a confirmed case in a neighboring county, according to fair officials.
The Brown County Fair wrapped up last weekend.
Fair organizers say there was no exposure to the horse disease among the animals at this year's event.
But officials are urging all horse owners to closely monitor their animals for symptoms.
If you suspect your horse has been exposed or is showing signs of illness, contact
veterinarian immediately to prevent further spread.

A teenager is seriously injured after a UTV rolled over in Grant County.
Investigators say a teenage male driver and female teen passenger were operating the vehicle when the crash happened.
Evidence shows it began to slide sideways while traveling down a hill, rolling over once and ejecting the driver.
The teen male was taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries before being flown to a hospital in Madison for emergency treatment.
The female passenger was taken to the hospital with suspected injuries.
As civic media has met
Shaffer tells us, UTV rollover crashes like the one in Grant County are on the rise across our state.
The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources is once again reminding riders to practice proper ATV and UTV safety as fatal crashes continue to be an issue across the state.
So far this year, 29 people have died in ATV and UTV crashes in Wisconsin.
The DNR says not wearing helmets and seatbelts are the primary factors in those fatal incidents, along with riders not completing a safety education course.
According to DNR records, the top three types of fatal crashes
This year have been rollovers, collisions with motor vehicles, and riders being ejected from the machine.
DNR Off-Highway Vehicle Administrator Jacob Holzklaas says not every crash can be prevented, but wearing the proper safety equipment can greatly increase the chances of surviving one.

Riders are also being reminded to stay sober, follow speed limits and other posted signs, and take an ATV or UTV safety class, regardless of age.
Charges have been upgraded to intentional homicide in a 2016 Chano County death.
40-year-old James Radford pleaded not guilty last month to a reckless homicide charge in the death of his wife at their town of Fairbanks home.
Prosecutors filed a new criminal complaint last week, changing the charge to first-degree intentional homicide.
Court records show a preliminary hearing is set for this Friday.

Receiver Matthew Golden exchanged punches with defensive end Baron Sorrell.
After the whistle, Sorrell on how it happened, even though he and Golden played on the same college team.
We're just being competitive, man.
Going out there playing football, things happen, emotions get higher.
got to it a little bit, but you know, that's my boy and I'm his boy, so we're still cool, but it's football.
Now tomorrow, the Packers hold their joint practice session with the Arizona Cardinals and their new head coach, Mike LaFleur, Matt's younger brother.
If there is an issue in practice, you're going to be limited or not at all playing in the game.
The second part of that is if there is an issue, I'm going to tell the guys, hey, you come tag me in.
They can tag in my brother and we'll throw down on the 50.
That's Matt LaFleur from training camp in Green Bay with sports.
