You'd think Deborah Kerr would explain her DPI decentralization plan on her campaign website

 

Not a peep

Kerr detailed her proposal to move the state education department out of Madison on Wednesday. Its current office is a couple of blocks away from the state Capitol.

Kerr said she would perform an “equity audit” of DPI staff and look to hire new staff who live in communities outside of Madison, possibly resulting in terminations of some current employees.  Kerr, who lives in Caledonia, would not move to Madison and would work at offices around the state. 

Underly called Kerr’s proposal a “Hail Mary to get more attention for a flailing campaign.” 

“This is a very expensive endeavor,” said Underly, who previously worked as an assistant manager at DPI. “What people want are more resources so they can hire school counselors and nurses and teachers; they don’t want to waste resources on DPI.
