Chip in today to elect Dem govs across the country >>
Democratic governors are leading the fight against Donald Trump and his administration – and they need your help. Trump and his allies have hundreds of millions of dollars to attack our candidates, and we have to make sure we’ve got the resources to fight back. With 36 races on the map this November, 80% of Americans will cast their vote for their next governor. We need to invest NOW to expand our map, win in battleground states, protect our blue firewall of Dem govs, and flip critical states from red to blue. Can Dem govs count on you to chip in right now?
DGA Statement on Bill Berrien Entering Republican Primary for Governor in Wisconsin
DGA spokesperson Izzi Levy released the following statement in response to Bill Berrien entering Wisconsin’s GOP gubernatorial primary:
“Bill Berrien kicked off his campaign for governor today with a promise to bring Washington Republicans’ extremism and chaos to Wisconsin, putting him directly at odds with the Wisconsinites who have demonstrated in election after election that they want commonsense, bipartisan leaders for their state. Berrien’s announcement today puts Wisconsin on the fast track for a nasty, bruising, and divisive GOP primary that is certain to focus on everything except the issues that matter most to Wisconsin families, like bringing down costs, protecting reproductive freedom, and investing in strong public schools. As Berrien, Josh Schoemann, and the other Republicans waiting in the wings spend the next year trying to prove their far-right bona fides, Wisconsinites are ready to reject whichever extreme candidate makes it out of the primary.”
In addition to Washington County Executive Josh Schoemann who launched his campaign earlier this year, Berrien joins a long list of failed candidates and Republican extremists who are contemplating a run for governor in 2026.
