Metropolitan Milwaukee Association of Commerce recently issued the following announcement.
MMAC President Tim Sheehy on recent violence in Milwaukee
Date:
May 17, 2022
Violence, anytime and anywhere, is devastating to a community. It is a reality that impacts too many neighborhoods, and too often our central business district. Safety is the first order for both individuals and business establishments. MMAC will continue to work with our elected leaders and law enforcement officials to support better solutions.
These solutions must come in an urgent response to reduce the violence now, and this summer, across the community. The solutions must come short-term in the form of a better partnership between the City and State to put additional law enforcement, public and mental health services in place. And the solutions must come long-term through better educational attainment for all of our residents and a better connection to the jobs that exist in this region.
MMAC and its members remain committed to creating economic opportunity that provides high-quality jobs to support a vibrant quality of life for all.
