Friend,
Welcome back to the March edition of The NEWsflash, a collection of stories and happenings from Northeast Wisconsin over the past month. From celebrating Eagle Scouts to breaking ground on new business expansions, March was filled with events that highlighted the best of Northeast Wisconsin.
I've included some photos and highlights from a few of the events my team and I were able to attend. You can also find information on how my office can help you with any federal problem you may have. As always, please don't hesitate to contact my office if we can ever be of assistance.

One-Stop Shop: This month, a member of my staff had the opportunity to attend the ribbon cutting event for Line-X as they celebrated the opening of a new location in Kaukauna. For over 25 years, Line-X has offered premium services in protective coating technology and I wish them all the best at their new location.

Live at LiveX: After touring LiveX's Green Bay facility last month, I finally got to see their production capabilities firsthand during an interview on ABC This Week. LiveX used their state-of-art communications equipment to produce a high quality shot that allowed for seamless communication for this remote interview.
