Re: Cosponsorship of Assembly Bill 636 and Senate Bill 319

I write to request that you make the necessary arrangements to add my name as a cosponsor of the above referenced legislation. These companion bills relate to recycling education and continued funding for the University of Wisconsin-Extension's Solid and Hazardous Waste Education Center. It was my intent to sign on to this legislation while it was first circulated. Unfortunately, my name did not appear in the list of cosponsors.
I appreciate your assistance with this request. As always, please feel free to give me a call should you have any questions or concerns about this or any other matter.
Sincerely,
Roger Breske
State Senator
