Friends -

Last month, we announced our "Barnes for Barns" tour – a statewide listening tour to highlight issues faced by Wisconsin’s farming and agriculture industry.

Wisconsin deserves a Senator who is looking out for family farmers in Washington, not big corporations and special interests. Mandela is ready to be that Senator.

But flipping this Senate seat and defeating Ron Johnson won't be easy, which is why it's so important that we are in this together.

Thanks for being a part of this campaign.
