I am excited to endorse this candidate for U.S. Senate

Today I am announcing my endorsement of Lieutenant Governor Mandela Barnes for the U.S. Senate in Wisconsin. Mandela is exactly the kind of strong leader for working families we need in the Senate!

Let's help turbocharge Mandela Barnes' campaign to victory in November. Together, we can flip Wisconsin from red to blue and expand our Democratic majority in the Senate. Rush a donation of $13 now.

Stand with Mandela Barnes

Mandela Barnes has deep roots in Wisconsin; he was born in Milwaukee, where his mother was a public school teacher and his father was a 3rd shift auto worker.

Mandela has spent the last decade fighting for working people as a community organizer, state legislator, and Lt. Governor. He's our kind of Democrat!

Mandela doesn't take a dime from corporate PACs because he believes public servants should be accountable to the people, not the powerful corporate special interests.

Mandela will take on the filibuster to secure voting rights, address gun violence, and fight to restore Americans' reproductive freedom. Mandela understands just how grievous the attacks on our democracy are and will fight like hell to preserve and protect it.

Instead of spouting conspiracy theories and enriching the wealthy and powerful special interests like some senators, Mandela will get up every day thinking about how we create opportunity for every single person in this country, no matter where they live, what they look like, or how much money they make. Sounds pretty good, right?

We can count on Mandela Barnes to fight hard for working families in Wisconsin and across the country.

50 Democrats in the Senate is NOT enough. We need to expand our Senate majority and Wisconsin is one of our best pick-up opportunities, so let's help elect Mandela Barnes as the next U.S. Senator from Wisconsin. Chip in $13 now to help send a fighter for working families to the U.S. Senate!

Onward!
