Our farmers deserve better than the chaos and deception from the Trump Administration. "Trump administration officials delayed and redacted a government forecast because...the numbers run counter to President Donald Trump’s messaging..." politico.com/news/2025/06/0…

It's a trifecta for tourism! More visits, more state and local revenue generated, and more economic impact. Madison and Dane County set records too. Good news for businesses, workers, and our communities that visitors are discovering our beautiful State! wmtv15news.com/2025/06/10/tou…

I have joined with Wisconsin’s legislative leaders from both parties on a joint statement decrying the horrific attacks in Minnesota. Our hearts break for our colleagues in Minnesota and their families.

It was a treat to be a guest on Rep. Mark Pocan's podcast along with Representative Greta Neubauer. We shared our thoughts about the “big, ugly bill” passed by Republicans in Congress and its devasting impacts on Wisconsin.

Republican infighting and dysfunction are getting in the way of the legislature doing its job: passing a budget that prioritizes what the people we serve tell us they care about most including public schools, the UW System, child care, healthcare. wkow.com/news/top-stori…

Reproductive freedom is a matter of life and death. In the three years since the disastrous Dobbs Decision, we have seen the heartbreaking and tragic consequences when Republican politicians are free to interfere with access to reproductive healthcare. npr.org/sections/healt…

We must invest in child care in this budget. Without meaningful investments, a quarter of child care providers say they are likely to close and 78% say they will have to raise costs for families. The time is now for our kids, our families, and Wisconsin’s future.

The Big, Ugly Bill passed by the US House, cuts food assistance to hungry kids and seniors here in Wisconsin to fund tax breaks for billionaires. Thank you Rep. Mark Pocan for the chance to talk about the disastrous effects of this cruel and unnecessary bill.

With Pride Month winding down, it is a good time to reaffirm our year 'round commitment to equality, respect, support, and appreciation for our LGBTQIA+ communities, neighbors and friends.

Wisconsin’s bi-partisan budget makes critical investments in child care, the UW system, and public schools. I worked hard to make it better than what Republicans were pushing. When Democrats are the majority party, we'll pass a different, stronger budget. wisconsinexaminer.com/2025/07/03/eve…

The big ugly bill that the Trump Administration just muscled through a complicit Republican congress is cruel and cynical. It will have disastrous consequences for our neighbors, our state, and our country for years to come. vox.com/politics/41859…

The Wisconsin Supreme Court handed down an important decision: It is unconstitutional for a small group of Republican legislators to block the implementation of laws that have been passed by the full legislature and signed by the governor. wisconsinexaminer.com/2025/07/08/sta…

Thanks to my friend Rep. Mark Pocan for having Representative Greta Neubauer and me as guests on his podcast! We covered a lot of ground, including looking ahead to some key issues Wisconsin Democrats will be focused on in the coming months.
