In the many meetings I have had with Andre, it is clear that he understands he serves at the consent of the governed. Andre is truly of, by and for the people. Andre binds his legislative thought process with an appropriate understanding of our God given freedoms guaranteed by our constitution. Please join me in endorsing Andre Jacque as Wisconsin’s 8th District Congressman,” said Oconto County Sheriff Todd Skarban.
“A qualified and experienced candidate who has earned a reputation as a conservative voice in the Wisconsin legislature, with a proven track record of supporting Law Enforcement and veterans is what we need in Congress.
