Tuesday, April 7! Wisconsin is READY to vote for Judge Chris Taylor!

Thanks to @govevers.wisconsin.gov tourism is BOOMING across WI! As a primary driver of our rural economy, investments into tourism are a vital piece to countless Wisconsinites lives.
Rural Wisconsinites are especially suffering under Trump and WI Republican’s refusal to act. November will be our chance to elect folks that will show up and do the work to make WI better for all!
I hear it all the time: between tariff taxes and skyrocketing healthcare costs, things are simply not affordable, and paychecks aren't going as far as they used to. My plan will help lower everyday out-of-pocket costs for working families, so let's make it happen.
Thanks to @markpocan.bsky.social for giving residents of WI-03 representation when DVO won’t! This is what a congressman looks like.
Three town halls in Western Wisconsin in representative Derek Van Orden’s district today so far. One more to go. People are upset about increasing healthcare costs and 15 million people losing healthcare access, as well as the Trump tariff taxes we are all paying. And guess who was a no-show…
Join us, and a whole bunch of other great folks for an informative discussion and workshop on rural and environmental outreach and engagement! Register below 👇
Workshop: Rural + Environmental = Democratic Victories! Wed. 10/8 7p CT. Virtual. With DNC Climate Council Chair @mdeatrick.bsky.social, Town Road Talk Host Rebecca Powell, @wisdems.org Envir. Caucus Chair Vik Verna, Fmr WI Rep. Dave Considine, @ruralwidems.bsky.social Chair Gloria Hochstein, more.
The only fool we see here is Tom thinking he represents the interests of Wisconsinites. He cares more about the southern border than about his own northern district. He’d rather rant and rave than represent; Tom is not for us!
Democrats continue to show up and push back against Trump’s awful policies, which are threatening the 🇺🇸’s economy 💪 Here in WI, @wisdems.org and all of our elected Democrats roll up our sleeves and do the work, especially when it’s tough 👊
Every Democratic Representative and Senator has signed on to support the recently introduced “Build A Stronger Wisconsin” package, four bills that will help strengthen Wisconsin’s overall economy during a time of rising costs. https://www.shorturl.at/2pT2b
The La Crosse County Democratic Party is aware of a “surprise” visit by Vice President JD Vance on Thursday at 11:00am near Mid-City Steel. We will absolutely be arranging a protest. Please follow our social media and information emails for specific information as we have it
Tom Tiffany continues to bluster while farmers pivot to alternative means of maintaining a financially-viable way forward; maybe if he actually did anything to help farmers they wouldn’t have to transition their land. Big Government Tom strikes again!
Thank you @govevers.wisconsin.gov for your continued commitment to investing in rural Wisconsin! Best Governor Evers 😎

Tom Tiffany “represents” one of the highest Native Nation populations in Congress. This is embarrassing and out of touch- whether it’s pandering to Trump for a run at Gov, or huffing and puffing in Congress about culture war issues, Tom is wrong for Wisconsin ❌
These tariffs are having impacts on our friends and neighbors, and it’s not just folks rural folks who are suffering the consequences.
Trump’s tariffs are hurting Wisconsin farmers, and Wisconsin Republicans don’t care. Democrats like Senator Brad Pfaff and Representative Jenna Jacobson do care and are committed to working for everyday Wisconsinites, not billionaires. www.news8000.com/news/politic...
Thanks to the GOP, Wisconsinites’ access to affordable healthcare is in jeopardy. Our chair @devinremiker.bsky.social shared this helpful resource to see just how awful the impacts will be, with rural areas especially suffering 👇 www.dhs.wisconsin.gov/medicaid/med...

💪 We can take back rural areas for Democrats in 2026 and beyond 👊 ❓How? By talking to voters about the issues they face and feel everyday, and explain how Trump is directly responsible 😡 www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...
Will Rural America give up on Trump? These small-town activists think so.
Rural organizers say Medicaid and SNAP cuts could help Democrats win rural votes in 2026. Republicans say: Don't count on it.
usatoday.com
🚨 ICYMI: @francescahong.bsky.social highlighted the positive impacts that SNAP provides DIRECTLY ➡️ farmers. “Hong’s claim is accurate and may even be a slightly conservative estimate” The GOP enabled these cuts, and it’s on us to hold them accountable next Nov 💪 www.jsonline.com/story/news/p...
Fact check: Yes, nearly 25 cents of every dollar spent via SNAP goes back to farmers
Data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Economic Research Service tells us how much of every dollar spent on food at home goes back to farms.
jsonline.com
🚨 Medicaid cuts by the GOP will devastate rural WI 🚨 Medicaid covers: - nearly 50% of rural births 👶 - nearly 2/3 of nursing home residents (including veterans!) 🧓 Republicans voted AGAINST rural Wisconsin. Make sure you join us in reminding them that isn't right 👇 linktr.ee/ruralwisdems

Embarrassing that a veteran would degrade another veteran like this, with an AI-generated image at that. That’s why WI are going to defeat DVO next November, and finally restore some dignity to WI-03! 💪
We can’t think of a worse person to represent WI-03! He lies 🤥 He yells 🤬 He whines 😫 But we’re going to beat him in 2026! With @wisdems.org leading the way, we can take back the 3rd and send a Representative to Washington who truly cares about their district 💪
Derrick Van Orden voted for hundreds of thousands of Wisconsinites to lose their health care and food security. And he’s THRILLED about it. This man is NOT fit to be a representative. In 2026, we need to make sure he’s GONE. Help us make it happen. wisdems.org/flipCD3
When folks tell us Democrats don’t live in rural places
Thanks to @govevers.wisconsin.gov's investments in EVERY corner of the state, rural WI is seeing historic renewal in infrastructure development 📈 💪 But we can't stop now- join @wisdems.org and the Rural Caucus to ensure we elect folks that will keep that investment going👇 linktr.ee/ruralwisdems
Thank you Governor Evers for tirelessly and honorably leading our state! Your commitment to bettering Wisconsin, with a renewed focus on rural areas most in need, left us all the better. Our friends, families, and farmers thank you 🧑🌾
A love letter from me to Kathy and my family—and to you, Wisconsin. youtu.be/b0_45uWyYA8
