Tranel named Vice Chair of Ag Committee

Representative-elect Travis Tranel is announcing his appointment as Vice-Chair of the Assembly Committee on Agriculture. Tranel says he is humbled by the appointment but excited to get to work on issues that benefit farmers and bring jobs to rural Wisconsin.

“I am thrilled to be able to go to Madison and serve in this capacity,” said Tranel. “I got into politics with the hope and desire to make a difference for the people of southwest Wisconsin. With this appointment, it looks like that hope is going to become a reality.”

Speaker-elect Jeff Fitzgerald is citing Tranel’s experience as a dairy farmer, milking 120 cows in Hazel Green Township as one reason for the appointment. Fitzgerald also says that Tranel has a proven record of creating agri-business jobs that he can apply to helping rural Wisconsin with its high unemployment problems.

“Tranel’s success as a small dairy farmer and as a job creator make him a prime candidate for the post,” said Fitzgerald. “I look forward to working with Travis on legislation to strengthen Wisconsin’s farming heritage and to help bring good jobs to rural Wisconsin.”

Tranel doesn’t take office until January 3rd but says he is already hard at work brainstorming ideas to improve Wisconsin’s economy and particularly to help rural Wisconsin. Until he officially takes office, Tranel can be reached at: 608-778-5567.
