Energy
Van Orden
It's going to get 20 degrees below zero in the state of Wisconsin. Whether or not you want to have a windmill or a solar panel, we have to have base load power, nuclear, cleaner coal, gas. That's what we need to turn to. We need to stick with it.

Healthcare
Van Orden
Those programs exist for a reason. They're critically important. I've done everything I can to fully fund them into the future, so that babies don't have to worry about whether they're getting pre-natal care or whether we're delivering the babies.

Economy
Van OrdenNo public position foundCooke
I'm focused on an America-first agenda and making sure that we're putting more resources back into the pockets of American taxpayers. I want to make sure that you can afford your healthcare. I want to make sure that our public schools are not having to vote on a referendum every year, and I want to make sure that you can go to the grocery store, to the gas pump, pay your rent or mortgage and have a little left over.

Immigration
Van OrdenNo public position foundCooke
It's very, very important that we make sure that our border remains secure, right? And I want to make sure that our communities remain safe places to live and work and play, but I also want to recognize what a big part immigrant labor is to our workforce here in west central Wisconsin.
