Hey there, I wanted to make sure you saw
yesterday's email from Governor Tony Evers. In case you missed
it, the Republican-held state legislature jumped through some
extraordinary hoops to throw out our state's mask mandate, and
overturn the public health state of emergency that the mandate
was declared under.
That's right: Wisconsin Republicans yesterday voted to undermine
the Governor, disregard science, and put each and every one of us
at risk for another, worse wave of COVID-19.
This is unacceptable, and it's something that we simply will not
stand for. We will not let Republicans across the country see
Wisconsin as the first domino to toppling common sense, science,
and public health across the country.
We can't let this attack on our safety go without a fight. Can I
count on you to chip in what you can so we can keep fighting to
implement the urgent recommendations of medical professionals?
It's more important than ever that we unite as Democrats, and
start investing early to re-elect Governor Evers, defeat Ron
Johnson, and retake our state legislature from anti-science
Republicans.

Folks,
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused tremendous pain in our state.
We all have a responsibility to our community, to protect one
another and stop unneeded suffering. We must listen to our
scientists and medical professionals.
Their advice was clear and uniform -- if everyone wore a facial
covering, fewer people would suffer and die from COVID-19.
So, as a person who recognizes the reality of science, I
listened to them and I issued a public health order for folks to
wear face coverings.
Look, I know you would have done the same thing
because this isn't about politics, it's about basic rationality
and decency.
Sadly, just today, the Wisconsin Assembly voted to overturn my
order for public health safety measures. They would rather ignore
the medical professionals and endanger our neighbors so that they
can play cheap political games.
We can't let this attack on our safety go without a fight. Can
I count on you to chip in what you can so we can keep fighting to
implement the urgent recommendations of medical professionals?
