This administration is trying to shut down the Department of Education, and it’s simply a bad idea — and Wisconsin children and families are going to pay the price.

Wisconsinites shouldn’t have to get a 2nd or 3rd job, come out of retirement, or go bankrupt just to be able to afford health care. I cannot, and will not, stop fighting these price hikes for working families.
After cutting lifesaving research into medical breakthroughs, wasting billions of taxpayer dollars, and just causing chaos, DOGE has been eliminated to…get this…save money.
That, folks, is what I call the real waste and abuse.
Americans are not just losing this food assistance out of nowhere. The Trump administration and Congressional Republicans passed a bill that will take away SNAP from families so they could fund a tax break for their wealthy friends.
The Affordable Care Act lets Wisconsinites sleep at night knowing that a health emergency won’t send them into bankruptcy. But that security is on the brink of being stripped away from millions of families. I heard from Wausau families about the worry & pain this will cause them.
Today, we mark 4 years since the Waukesha Christmas Parade tragedy. As we remember the lives lost and victims of this senseless violence, we recognize that though the wounds of this tragedy still haven’t healed, the Wisconsin community will keep standing together, stronger.
Billionaires didn't have to be patient for their massive tax cut, but working families who need relief do?

Living your life as your true, authentic self shouldn’t put a target on your back. But that’s not the case for too many transgender Americans, and it must stop. I stand with the trans community as we remember the lives taken in hateful acts of violence.
The President’s call for the murder of Americans is simply un-American. When I say there is no place in our country for political violence, I mean it. It doesn’t matter who says it or why. There is no justification. Every American should condemn this in no uncertain terms.
Wisconsin farmers — who work tirelessly to support their families and our economy — are still paying the price for this totally unnecessary trade war. www.cnbc.com/2025/11/17/c...
Trump’s devastating cuts have stranded thousands of Americans in the middle of life-saving clinical trials.
There simply is no good reason to take this hope away from families, and it’s appalling.
This is exactly what we are talking about when we say these reckless tariffs just mean higher costs for families. This chaos has got to stop.

Every single victim deserves justice, and every American deserves the truth. Tonight, we stood in solidarity with survivors and are finally getting transparency and accountability. It’s past time for the Trump administration to release the Epstein files.
Families need health care they can afford, not empty promises from politicians. I promised Wisconsinites that I would fight for their health care, and that’s what I’m doing.
Americans know the price they’re paying at the cash register. Instead of trying to convince Americans that costs are down, Trump needs to actually do what he said he would on Day 1. I’m ready to work with him to do it.

Wisconsin small business owners and families will either have to pay sky-high health care prices or forgo insurance altogether.
Today, I heard from Janine and Kim in Green Bay about these exact fears if these tax breaks are ripped away.
If Republicans take away these health care tax breaks, small businesses like those here in Madison will struggle to stay afloat, hire staff, and keep their doors open. They shouldn’t have to choose between caring for their employees or risking their business’s success.
I’m not ok raising health care costs on 22 million Americans – it is as simple as that. wisconsinexaminer.com/2025/11/13/a...
The current health care fight in Washington proves now more than ever, we need a health care system that works for Wisconsin families. It was great to be with the Medical College of Wisconsin to talk about our path forward to do just that.
Today, I stood with Nancy & Erica in Milwaukee to make clear the fight for lower health care costs isn’t over.
They are two of the 275,000 Wisconsinites who rely on health care tax breaks and are scrambling to figure out how to afford care next year if Republicans refuse to act.
