MADISON, Wis. (AP) – Republican candidate for governor Mark Neumann says his goal is to attract 300,000 jobs in 10 years by working closely with University of Wisconsin campuses to attract more businesses and research.
Neumann unveiled his plan to create three “research triangles” that would match expertise on the campuses with businesses that create jobs.
Neumann says his plan can succeed even if the universityâ??s budget is cut as part of his plan to reduce the budgets of all state agencies. His plan even calls for offering a tax break to businesses that create jobs.
