Today Ben Wikler announced that he will not seek another term as our WisDems Chair. After six years of incredible leadership, hard-won victories, and tireless work fighting for Wisconsinites, we want to say thank you. Add your name to thank Chair Wikler: wisdems.org/thank-you-ben/âŠ
Fellow GHC members: join me in voting for the SEIU Wisconsin-endorsed slate for the board! Health care is better for all when the workers have a voice through a union. Voting deadline is Sunday night!
Since he loves being in Washington and avoiding his constituents back home, Derrick Van Orden probably doesn't know that: -152,000 of his constituents rely on Medicaid for health care -3 in 8 WI kids are on Medicaid -34,000 households in his district rely on SNAP for food security
âI implore you to put politics aside, and our neighbors first.â Derrick Van Orden has repeatedly lied that the big ugly bill wonât gut Medicaid and that he wouldnât vote for anything that hurt rural health centers (also a lie). Here he is all but admitting heâs full of shit.
This isnât about you. This is about the 17 million Americans whose health insurance youâre taking away. And after you turned your back on them to vote âYESâ, you said your fellow House GOP should vote NO. Americans are going to suffer. YOU admit that. And YOU supported it.
Rep. Hakeem Jeffries began speaking on the House floor just before 5 am ET. Heâs still talking to help give us time to contact Republican Representatives and urge them to vote NO on the Republican Budget Bill. Your time is running out! Call your Representatives âĄïž (202) 224-3121
Meet our new Chair Devin Remiker! A native of the working class community of Two Rivers, Devin is bringing his lived experience to the job to help us secure a blue trifecta, strengthen the SCOWIS liberal majority, and win US House races. Watch more here âŹïž
Rep. Derrick Van Orden wants to screw over the working class and wonât even hold a town hall to look them in the eye after he betrayed them. Weâre going to make sure every person in WI03 knows heâd rather fatten billionairesâ wallets than feed hungry kids in his district.
