On the Issues: David Crowley

Description

Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley

In this online On the Issues event, new Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley will discuss his vision for the state’s largest county as well as the realities that will help shape it. The 34-year-old state representative scored a narrow victory in the April election, becoming the first African American in county history to hold the position. Crowley says his goal is to improve the quality of life for all county residents. But the job won’t be easy. The county faces serious challenges: rising pension costs, millions of dollars in deferred parks maintenance, and the fallout from the coronavirus pandemic, which will mean millions of dollars in lost revenue. We’ll talk with the County Executive about his first month on the job and about his long-term goals.
