The Honorable, the Senate:
This letter is to inform you of my resignation from the Wisconsin State Senate, pursuant to Wisconsin State Statute 17.01 (3), effective at the close of business day on December 1, 2022.
For the past thirty-two years, it has been my honor and privilege to represent the great people of Wisconsin. I am especially fortunate to have been surrounded by a supporting family and staff. I thank them for their patience and dedication to the state of Wisconsin.
Serving requires many sacrifices and I look forward to giving family and friends my full attention.
Moreover, I thank the people of the 8th Senate District for entrusting me with the honor of representing them.
On, Wisconsin!
Sincerely,
ALBERTA DARLING
Senator – 8th Senate District

Dear President Kapenga and Speaker Vos:
Congratulations, again, on your re-elections to the Legislature and to leadership of your respective chambers. I look forward to working with both of you and your Democratic colleagues in the next legislative session on many important issues facing our state, including helping working families who are facing rising costs due to national inflation and restoring the reproductive freedom Wisconsinites before the Supreme Court of the United States overturned Roe v. Wade, all while finding common ground to make significant investments in our public schools, continue fixing our roads, expand high-speed internet, keep our communities safe through increased state support to our local partners, among several other critical issues that we know Wisconsinites overwhelmingly support.
The State of the State address will be delivered on February 7, 2023, at 7:00 p.m. Pursuant to Wis. Stat. § 16.45, I respectfully request to deliver the budget message at 7:00 p.m. on February 28, 2023 or March 7, 2023. While I will be available both days, my preference would be to deliver the budget address on March 7. A later date this year will allow both the State Budget office and the Legislative Fiscal Bureau additional time to review year-end economic activity in 2022 and updated 2023 economic forecasts. Thank you in advance for your consideration. Please do not hesitate to reach out to my chief of staff, Maggie Gau, with any questions in the interim. I hope you and your families have a happy and safe holiday season, and I look forward to working together and having a productive legislative session in the new year.
Sincerely,
TONY EVERS
Governor
