Wimberger receives WCA Outstanding Legislator Award

MADISON, Wis. — State Sen. Eric Wimberger, R-Green Bay, has been honored by the Wisconsin Counties Association with a WCA Outstanding Legislator Award for his work on behalf of county government during the 2023-2024 Legislative Session.

“Sen. Wimberger has been a valuable partner to counties, not only in the 30th Senate District, but for all of Wisconsin,” said WCA President & CEO Mark D. O’Connell. “He is a strong leader who has worked alongside our team to advance legislation and common-sense public policy initiatives that keep in mind the fiscal impact on the taxpayers.”

The “WCA Outstanding Legislator Award” is handed out biennially to a select group of legislators who have represented county interests in both the legislature and in their districts. These legislators have demonstrated leadership for counties on key issues, legislation and the state budget.

“As a member of Joint Finance especially, Sen. Wimberger worked on many issues impacting our state, our environment and our economy,” O’Connell said. “We are grateful for his efforts and incredibly proud to present him with this award.”

WCA represents the interests of county government on the state and federal levels and is in Madison, Wisconsin. For more information, visit www.wicounties.org.
