[1]Mandela Barnes for Wisconsin

Small businesses and the working families that power them are the heart and soul of Wisconsin.

But as I’ve traveled across Wisconsin as Lieutenant Governor, I’ve heard from countless small business owners and workers about the tough challenges we’re facing, and how difficult it’s been for families and communities.

I’m proud to have worked alongside Governor Evers to ensure more than 100,000 small businesses in Wisconsin got the help they needed to survive the pandemic and keep their workers employed.

Yet in Washington, the largest corporations get massive handouts, while small businesses are often left with little more than crumbs of support.

It's time for that to change.

That’s why I’m releasing my plan to fight and deliver for small businesses and workers in the United States Senate. Here's what this plan will accomplish:

Prioritize family farms and rural small businesses;

Crack down on corporate handouts and level the playing field for small businesses to compete;

Address bad trade deals and anti-competitive practices to boost Wisconsin business and compete with China;

Do right by workers and help Wisconsin businesses attract workers;

Grow local jobs and address supply chain issues by passing Senator Baldwin’s Made in America Act;

Support minority-owned small businesses and veteran entrepreneurship.
But the only way we're going to get this done is if we make our voices heard, and it starts with adding your name to say you support this plan.

Please sign my petition to say you support my plan that will deliver for small businesses and workers in Wisconsin and across the country.

Over the course of this pandemic, small businesses have suffered the most from rising costs and supply chain disruptions while big corporations are raising their prices to reap record profits.

As if that weren’t enough, businesses are also facing a torrent of bad trade deals, huge corporations’ continued use of anti-competitive practices, and the Chinese Communist Party’s extortionist economic agenda — making it even harder for Wisconsin small businesses to compete here at home and across the globe.

But as small businesses and workers struggle, Ron Johnson has blocked relief and investment. He worked his hardest to pass bills that give handouts to his wealthiest donors and even enrich himself, but he stood against bipartisan efforts to help family farmers and small businesses get by and thrive.

Wisconsin needs a Senator that will stand with every single Wisconsin worker and business, not one that will pick winners and losers based on who cuts checks to their campaign.

In the Senate, I will be committed to supporting small businesses. But first, I need your help to show that there is strong support for this important plan:

Please sign my petition to say you support my plan to deliver for small businesses and workers in Wisconsin and across the country.

From family farms to main street shops and everything in between, small businesses are at the center of the community in every corner of Wisconsin. They support great jobs and economic growth all across our state.

Thank you for adding your name to support my plan.

All my best,

Mandela Barnes
