Speech language pathologist and Democratic candidate for the 52nd District, Julie Schroeder appears to be a promising candidate, but does not have any issue positions available online. Rep. Jeremy Thiesfeldt was among the Assembly Republicans who pressured school districts to reopen for in-person instruction with little regard for science and has been endorsed by WI Family Action PAC and Wisconsin Right to Life, a right wing group that wants to outlaw abortion. As such, there is no verifiably progressive candidate in the race.
