I wanted PCCC members to be among the first to know...
Today I suspended my campaign for U.S. Senate from Wisconsin. I'm endorsing our Lt. Governor, Mandela Barnes.
Mandela is the remaining candidate who Wisconsinites can most trust to fight hard in the Senate for bold progressive policies that benefit working families -- ideas like Medicare For All, a job-creating Green New Deal to grow Wisconsin’s economy, and paying for those big ideas by making the ultra-wealthy pay their fair share.
I will do everything I can to ensure he is our nominee, and I will work hard to ensure all Democrats on the ballot are successful in November of 2022. We must do all we can to unrig the system so it works for everyone, not just the ultra-wealthy and Wall Street, and stop the creep of fascism in America.
With so many candidates in this Democratic primary, progressive power was being split and diluted. With my candidacy now over, it’s clear which candidate will fight hardest to ensure opportunity for all Wisconsinites, regardless of their zip code.
The PCCC both endorsed me and Mandela in this previously-9-candidates primary. To the many PCCC members who supported me in this race and in past efforts over the years: Thank you! I am humbled to have had you at my side. With your time, your resources, and with your words, you helped grow our mandate for bold progressive change.
Forward!
