Democracy Depends on All of Us

Are you ready to show that we aren’t going back and we aren’t giving up? Now is the time to roll up our sleeves and elect progressive candidates in the important Spring election.

In the Spring of 2023, we worked hard to support Judge Janet Protasiewicz’ successful candidacy for the Wisconsin Supreme Court, flipping the court to a 4-3 progressive majority. The progressive majority brought an end to gerrymandered legislative seats, enabling Democrats to flip 10 assembly seats from red to blue as well as 4 state senate seats.

That narrow majority is at stake as progressive Justice Ann Walsh Bradley will be retiring in July 2025. Dane County Judge Susan Crawford is the only progressive on the ballot. (Learn more about Judge Crawford.) Future Supreme Court decisions will determine what reproductive rights women have, the funding of our public schools and what health insurance is available to Wisconsin residents. Electing her on April 1st and retaining the progressive majority is absolutely critical.

There are other important races on the ballot this spring, including the race for State Superintendent of Public Instruction. Because of all that court decisions will impact, however, supporting Judge Susan Crawford is our most important focus. 

We are ready to get back to work. Check out the Events page and volunteer as much as you are able.

We won’t give up and we aren’t going back.
