This is a location that\u2019s starting to pump compressed natural gas, and I\u2019m glad to see how that\u2019s starting to grow. It\u2019s important that people like me, representing the state, understand these issues,\u201d Johnson said. \u201cWe\u2019re trying to make Wisconsin \u2014 we\u2019re trying to make America \u2014 a more attractive place for the kind of business risk-taking and business investment expansion that provides those good paying jobs, that builds a strong middle class.\u201d\u00a0\r\nSen. Johnson toured the Kwik Trip store, discussed issues important to the business and the community, and spent time serving customers from behind the counter after receiving \u201cclerk training\u201d from current employees. Johnson also reflected on his own time years ago as a clerk. \u201cI started my career in a Walgreens, first as a dishwasher, then as a soda jerk and fry cook. So I\u2019ve done the old cash registers before you had all the fancy touch screens.\u201d", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.ronjohnson.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/press-releases?ID=26fa4f85-9702-45b2-9f66-b15d0d20ff02"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.396972220391035, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
