Mike Pence won’t be honest when he speaks to Wisconsin voters. He won’t mention their failure to protect Americans from the coronavirus pandemic. He won’t mention their failed trade war that continues to hurt family farms.
Pence will start his day in the Green Bay television market by visiting Ripon College. Trump, Pence, and Betsy DeVos are demanding schools reopen during the height of a public health crisis – without any plan to do so safely.
Health experts, pediatricians, teachers, and school superintendents all oppose Trump's push to reopen schools before it can be done safely and have criticized Trump’s threat to withhold funding.
Mike Pence will then travel to a dairy farm near La Crosse. The Trump Administration’s trade war with China has been terrible for Wisconsin farmers. Over 2,000 family farms in Wisconsin have gone out of business since Trump took office.
Trump’s Secretary of Agriculture, Sonny Purdue, told family dairy farmers to become large corporate farms or GET OUT OF FARMING. He then called farmers a bunch of whiners.
Our farmers have supported our state for generations. Instead of attacking them, we need to partner with and support our farmers, agricultural industries, and our rural communities. This is the time to make it clear we’re tired of the Trump Administration’s failures and their campaign's tactics to try to distract us from them.
We have an ambitious grassroots goal for the month, but if we are going to reach it and invest more into our organizing programs, we need to raise $15,000 before Pence leaves tomorrow. Chip in now:

Wisconsin is the most important state to Trump in the November election and he will do anything to win our state after only carrying it by a few thousand votes in 2016. We cannot let them win. Their failures are damaging our nation as they ignore the scientists who could help us get back on the path to recovery. Chip in now to help us stop them from winning →
Thanks,
WisDems
