Kitty Rhoades
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kitty Rhoades (born 1951) was a Wisconsin State Assemblywoman who represented the 30th Assembly district.
Rhoades attended the University of Wisconsin-River Falls and the University of Illinois.
In the 1990s, Rhoades proposed the term Winnesota to describe Wisconsin's St. Croix and Pierce Counties, which border Minnesota and according to the U.S. Census Bureau are within the Minneapolis-Saint Paul Metropolitan Area. According to Rhoades, "I still call my area Winnesota. We are in Wisconsin, but it sure is hard to remember it."[1]
Rhoades decided to retire from the state Assembly in 2010 [1]. She currently serves as the deputy secretary for the Department of Health Services for the state of Wisconsin.
