Open up Ron Johnson's FEC report, and you'll find ultra-conservative PACs and Super PACs have been stuffing his pockets with campaign cash:
Mountaire Corporation - $11,600
Oorah! PAC - $10,000
Hawkeye PAC - $10,000
Free State PAC - $10,000
Freedom Fund - $10,000
That means that when Ron Johnson goes to Washington, he won't just be expected to answer to the people back home -- he'll be expected to do exactly what his big money donors want him to do.
I want Wisconsinites to show slimey corporate billionaires and corrupt politicians like Ron Johnson that we don’t need to take part in a rigged finance system to win elections. So I have to ask:
Can you chip in $5 or more to help us keep our grassroots momentum going and compete with the PACs and corporate interests shoveling money into Ron Johnson's campaign coffers?
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation to defeat Ron Johnson and elect the first Democratic woman physician to the U.S. Senate will go through immediately:

If you want to get to the root of why Ron Johnson votes against paid leave, against funding our roads and bridges, against sending COVID-19 relief to families, and against raising wages for workers, all you have to do is follow the money.
The reality is that all campaigns depend on donations to hire staff, to train volunteers, and get out the vote. But those who cuddle up to special interests and corporate donors often have the easiest time keeping their campaign operations running.
I'm not taking a dime of corporate PAC money to run my campaign for U.S. Senate. And together, we can change politics as usual by ousting one of the worst dark-money politicians in DC. Are you with me? Chip in $5 or more to help us keep our grassroots momentum going and finish November strong!
Thank you,
