If you liked Scott Walker as governor, you'll L-U-V Tom Tiffany's "different path"

 
Featured headline:  Wisconsin State Journal, 2/5/2026

Kimberly Wethel reports in the 2/4 State Journal:
Tiffany’s first foray into politics was in 2009, when he became a supervisor for the town of Little Rice, population 300, west of Rhinelander and north of Tomahawk in Oneida County. He was also appointed to the county’s economic development corporation. 
He joined the state Legislature in 2011, running for the seat after the incumbent retired during the Tea Party wave that handed control of the Legislature back to Republicans. After one term in the Assembly, Tiffany ran for the 12th Senate District, winning on his third attempt after failed runs in 2004 and 2008. 
As a state lawmaker, Tiffany was a part of the Republican majority that helped implement much of then-Gov. Scott Walker’s agenda, including Act 10, which eliminated most collective bargaining rights for most public employees, changes to the Universities of Wisconsin such as a tuition freeze and removing tenure protections from state statute, and expanded private school vouchers.
