I wanted to share my story with you, and tell you how it shaped me into the person I am today.
I hope you’ll read it all the way through and, if you can, chip in a few of your hard-earned dollars to help me raise the kind of money I need to defeat a Capitol Insurrectionist >>
I was raised on a dairy farm right here in rural Wisconsin. I met my wife here, and we raised our family here, just as my family has done since they came to our country in the 1800s.
That’s how I know that rural America is just as important as anywhere else.
I had my dream job as Secretary of the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection. I understood the help and protections that our farmers were looking for.
But after I sparred with Republican legislators over funding for a farmer suicide prevention program, they unanimously voted to fire me from the job.
Even though it cost me my job, I don’t regret speaking out. I saw a need, and I will always fight for what’s right.
Because that’s what rural Americans do. We don’t just go away. We’re resilient. So, I ran for State Senate. And I won. Instead of going away, I’m with them every day, holding Madison accountable to the people of Wisconsin.
But my opponent, Derrick Van Orden? Well, he was a part of the Capitol Riots on January 6th and then tried to lie to Wisconsinites about it.
We can’t let a person like that represent us in Congress. So I’m going to win this race the only way I know how: by going everywhere and talking with everyone. But I won’t kid myself. I know it’s going to be a tough race, so I need your help to build this campaign strong.
Will you chip in $5 to help us start this month strong? We’ve got a big goal this month, and anything you can give will go a long way towards helping us reach it:
This race will be close, so $5 or whatever you can give will make a huge difference. Rural Americans know how to work together, and when everyone chips in, we can show people like Derrick Van Orden what it really means to care about rural America.
Thanks,
Brad
