Dave Armstrong

Since 2013, Dave has been working to grow the local economy as the Executive Director of the Barron County Economic Development Corporation. His work has helped Barron County to be ranked 6th among the fastest-growing counties in Wisconsin in terms of business investment by SmartAsset.com. Armstrong also led efforts to assist entrepreneurs to start new businesses, introduced an economic gardening initiative to help existing businesses to grow, championed additional workforce training programs and led the initiative to address the acute housing shortage in the area. These efforts assist all residents, businesses and municipalities in the region. 

Armstrong has been heavily involved in the community previously serving two-terms on the Rice Lake City Council. He’s a former member of the Rice Lake Tourism Commission, Rice Lake Chamber of Commerce board member, past President of the Law Enforcement Foundation of Barron County and mentors students each year at Rice Lake High school.

In addition to his service in local government and community groups, Dave was successful in the private sector, starting two different companies in the medical field which he later sold. He also served as the Vice President of Substance Abuse Services for Healthcomp Evaluation Services Corporation then ClinNet Services LLC.

“I have represented the residents of the 75th Assembly District for the past two sessions. Due to redistricting, I am running re-election to the new 67th Assembly to build on the success I had in my first two terms. We need to make sure we keep Wisconsin on the right track and to assure rural Wisconsin is not forgotten. As a state, we’ve made positive reforms, but there’s still more work to do,” added Armstrong. “We must continue addressing the issue of affordable and accessible healthcare, lower property and income taxes, rural broadband access, strengthening our schools, helping individuals to start and expand small businesses, creating additional housing and childcare and helping to create vibrant communities. With my background in both the private sector and local government, I have the experience necessary to find ways to work together and get the job done.” 

Dave lives in Rice Lake with his wife Janell. They have four grown children and 4 grand children (and one on the way) who reside in Wisconsin and New York. Their youngest just completed four years of active in the Marine Corps. Dave is an avid sportsman and is active in both his church and the community.
