## Resource

Andy Manske, a medical services technician running in the Republican primary for Wisconsin governor, is betting his campaign on authenticity—touting his everyday life, his dream of starting a family, and his vision for a more affordable, connected state. He’s pushing bold ideas to break Madison’s gridlock, like locking lawmakers in special sessions until deals are done. To tackle affordability, he’s championing a four-day workweek to boost wages and improve well-being, inspired by Iceland. He’s also targeting the state’s budget surplus by eliminating the feminine hygiene product tax—a move he says will help women and stimulate local spending. To combat soaring housing costs, Manske wants to stop Wall Street from buying up homes, incentivize new construction, and even launch a program where volunteers build homes to earn discounts or land. His goal? Make Wisconsin more livable, attractive, and prosperous for future generations.
