Dave Craig Kicks Off Campaign in Muskego

Republican candidate for 83rd District receives high praise from Congressman Paul Ryan

Calling it "an opportunity to elect someone of fantastic character," U.S. Congressman Paul Ryan (R) announced the kickoff of Dave Craig's campaign for the Wisconsin 83rd district.  The spot was previously held by Scott Gunderson, who resigned from the assembly to take a position as executive assistant with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources in January.

Speaking at InPro Corporation in Muskego's Business Park, Craig, a resident of Big Bend, said, "I appreciate the gravity of where we are fiscally in this state.  I believe Scott Walker was elected with a clear mandate to address the state's problems, and I believe that we need to allow business to operate in a unfettered way so we can grow our economy."

Attendees were already supporters of Ryan and had come to meet the man he had come to endorse.  Craig had worked for Ryan for more than eight years in his Kenosha office as a congressional aide.
