In response, Rep. Shankland released the following statement:

“I’m honored to be named Conservation Legislator of the Year by the Wisconsin Wildlife Federation. I greatly appreciate their leadership as sportsmen and women in conservation. My focus in the legislature has always been on clean water, air, and public lands, and I enjoy working hand in hand with WWF and George Meyer to help protect our state’s natural resources for generations to come.”

Rep.
