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?
VIDEO: Ahead of Walker’s State of the State, DGA Releases “Broken Promises”
Walker Still Hasn’t Delivered Promises on Jobs and Schools
Today, the DGA released a video ahead of Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s State of the State address. The video, titled “Broken Promises,” highlights some of Walker’s worst broken promises.
When Walker first ran for governor, he promised to create 250,000 jobs in just four years. In 2014, Politifact rated promise as officially broken. And in the three years since then, Walker has still fallen short of 250,000.
Walker also ran ads claiming that Wisconsin was making record investments in the public education system. Politifact rated that claim mostly false.
Watch the video HERE.
“Before Governor Walker makes more empty promises this afternoon, the DGA wanted to remind Wisconsin voters of the ones he’s already broken,” said DGA Communications Director Jared Leopold. “Walker has failed to deliver on his commitments to fix Wisconsin’s economy and schools. Walker will continue to be haunted by his countless broken promises as he runs for reelection this year.”
