PRESS RELEASE: Jesse Kremer Welfare Reform Proposal

In keeping with his campaign slogan, Republican 59th Assembly Candidate Kremer introduces another bold idea emanating from his conservative values.

jesse-kremer-welfare-reformKewaskum, Wisconsin, July 23, 2014: Jesse Kremer is proposing a welfare reform idea that could prove controversial, but may garner bi-partisan support.  Kremer issued the following statement, “I am appalled with the lack of oversight and control when a government program or bureaucracy is initiated.  I feel that although government welfare programs are a social necessity and a crutch for those who fall on hard times, they are not meant to be a permanent life style.”

Kremer firmly stated that he would like to study the effects of possibly purchasing buildings to use as state food pantries and allow them to be run by private companies.  “I believe that we would save millions of taxpayer dollars, even if we were to provide the actual structures.” said Kremer. The pantries would only provide life-sustaining foods such as bread, flour, vegetables, fruits, eggs, milk, etc.  Junk foods, liquor, and cigarettes would be excluded.  Kremer feels that the pantries should be directly responsible to the legislature.  State auditors would provide  oversight and report to this legislative committee.

Kewaskum, Wisconsin, July 17, 2014: The Kremer campaign disclosed this afternoon that as of late last week, they have knocked on over 10,500 potential voter doors since the middle of March. Jesse Kremer, a first time candidate, has been re-inventing the wheel when it comes to grass roots campaigning. Kremer bicycled 85 miles through the entire district in June, put on a “Family Night Out” event in Kewaskum in early May, and even had a Town Hall “Meet & Greet” fundraiser with sitting State Senator Paul Farrow as a guest. Kremer commented on the recent achievement, “I may be new to this, but I am living up to my campaign slogan of ‘Bold Ideas… Conservative Values’. We did not wait around for a voter list from the Republican party in early June like our establishment competitors. We hit the ground running in the middle of March wearing gloves and several layers of clothes while the snowflakes were still flying. We felt that this list of voters from the 2012 primary race would be the most probable voters during the 2014 election cycle and needed to put my face to the name early on.”

Although Jesse Kremer is new to politics, he has a vast array of real world experiences as a pilot, military veteran, former police dispatcher, small business owner, husband, father of three young girls, church council member, and a volunteer firefighter/EMT.

Veterans Support Jesse Kremer for 59th Assembly District

Jesse Kremer served as an enlisted member of a Medevac National Guard unit, a Reserve Army Hospital unit, and a Reserve Drill Sergeant unit – all located in Southeastern Wisconsin.
