Here’s the truth

  It’s Ben Wikler, the Chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin, and I’m writing to ask you to make a contribution - $10 or whatever you can afford - before our primary on Tuesday.  Here’s the truth:  All of the national outlets are saying abortion access and voting rights are on t…

For you

  Hi folks, I’m sure you’re getting ready to log off for the weekend, so I’ll keep this short! Our mid-FEC fundraising deadline expires at midnight and my team tells me that we’re still a little behind on our target. With political pundits naming me one of the most vulnerable Senators…

We wanted you to hear it from us first

  We wanted you to hear it from us first:  Moments ago, Senate Republicans launched an attack ad severely misrepresenting Tammy’s record.  We’ve said it once and we’ll say it again, Republicans and their right-wing allies will throw everything they’ve got at us to flip Wisconsin and r…

I’ll be honest

  I’ll be honest, folks: In a moment, I'm going to ask you to contribute to help us reach our mid-quarter fundraising goal. But first, I want to take a moment to explain why your support is so important, especially today.  Although next year’s elections might seem far away, election f…

We don’t have a crystal ball...

  Have you heard of the Senate Leadership Fund? If you haven’t, it’s the name of Mitch McConnell’s super PAC. And it’s a big deal.  This super PAC is the source of hundreds of millions of dollars in spending to defeat vulnerable Democratic senators. Last year, the Senate Leadership Fu…

$17.58

  Hi there, When I say that this campaign is powered by grassroots supporters like you, I mean it. Last year, our average online donation was $17.58. That’s a number I’m proud of. Every time someone chips in, whether it’s $5, $20, or $50, that contribution goes towards our important w…

We have some catching up to do

Add your name: Pass legislation to lower the cost of insulin

The election that could change abortion access in WI

“Fan the flame”

Because of Margaret, Cheryl, and Aaron

  Hi team, I just wanted to reach out and personally thank you. When my team and I met last week to go over our fundraising numbers for January, I have to admit that I was a little worried. Now that our Senate seat is considered in-cycle, hitting every goal is important — and we had a…

I’ll keep this short

  I’m sure you’re receiving quite a few emails about tonight’s end-of-month deadline, so I promise to keep this one short. Wisconsin has proven to be a true toss-up state in the last two elections. President Biden only won by 0.6% in 2020 and GOP Senator Ron Johnson won by 1% in 2022.…
