Hi John, I wanted you to be the first to know – I’m launching my campaign to be the next governor of Wisconsin. I hope you’ll take a moment to support my campaign by splitting a contribution between me and Democracy Defense Action.

This is a critical moment for Wisconsin.

Growing up, my family’s union jobs were enough to get us a ticket to the middle-class – but today, working hard and playing by the rules no longer opens those same doors to the middle-class.

Buying a house seems impossible for too many of us.

Tax loopholes continue to benefit billionaires, not middle class families.

And family farmers are being squeezed by Trump’s tariffs.  

This moment we’re in right now demands that we step up to the plate – that we choose bold, innovative leadership that meets today’s challenges and will take on Donald Trump.

I’m talking about expanding Badgercare, closing loopholes for the ultra-rich to cut taxes for middle-class working families, restoring workers’ rights, and above all, creating a better future for Wisconsinites by rejecting the Washington way and coming together behind the Wisconsin way.

If you’re with me, please take a moment to split a donation between my campaign and Democracy Defense Action. It means a lot to have you in my corner, John:

More to come. Thanks for your support.
