No matter how much Ron Johnson spreads dangerous conspiracy theories, denies climate change, or attacks our democracy, the big corporate donors funding his campaign continue to invest. And as the son-in-law of a billionaire who spent $8 million of his own money to win this Senate seat, we know he will do whatever it takes to stay in power.
They are betting that their money will blind the people of Wisconsin into voting against our values and distract from the fact that Tom Nelson is supporting policies that will help working families — like Medicare for All and getting big money out of politics.
We can’t beat Ron Johnson by running self-funding candidates who won’t stand with Senator Tammy Baldwin in supporting Medicare for All, and won’t support progresssive values like challenging corporate power and the influence of Wall Street. We need the real deal, and that’s Tom Nelson.

John,
At this point, we know the type of Senator that Ron Johnson is — a fraud comfortable with spreading deadly lies and openly attacking American democracy.
But today, I’m writing this email to let you know what I stand for. I’m running because the next U.S. Senator from Wisconsin should:
- Support workers rights and unions (I even wrote a book this year about how I helped the local union save a paper mill in my home state)
- Champion Medicare For All & the Green New Deal
- End the filibuster to get progressive policies passed
- Fight to break up Wall Street firms that prey on workers and rig the tax code
- Get corporate money out of our politics
- Break up corporate monopolies to give our small businesses and family farmers a fair shot to compete
- Defend women’s rights
- Stand up for the LGBTQ community
- Tax the rich to make them pay their fair share. The Jeff Bezoses of the world have enough megayachts and personal rocket ships.
These issues are what I care deeply about, and I will do everything in my power to fight on behalf of working folks like you in the Senate. But we’re in this together. Your support right here, right now, could help ensure we defeat Ron Johnson in 2022.
As one of the only non-millionaires in this race, I’m asking for your support. In these summer months, we need to keep up with our millionaire opponents, including Ron Johnson, who married into a billionaire family. To do that, we need to raise $8,000 by Friday at midnight. The people of Wisconsin deserve better. If you’re ready for a Senator who will serve everyone, chip in to my campaign now.

Right now, the GOP, including Senator Johnson, are not even focused on the issues that matter most to everyday Americans. They’re more concerned about restricting your right to vote and rewriting the history of January 6 than trying to win on the issues. John, these attempts to pass voter suppression bills in states like Wisconsin are un-American.
Just look at what’s happening with the Texas lawmakers fleeing their state to protect people’s right to vote.
Disagreeing politically is normal, but it’s another thing entirely to actively work to undermine American democracy. That’s what the GOP is doing across the country. And this type of unpatriotic behavior is exactly why we need to fire Senators like Ron Johnson next year.
If you’re with me and believe we need better than what the GOP is offering, chip in now to support my campaign >>
Thank you for your support,
Tom Nelson
