Representative, District 68
Richard Pulcher has served his community in several capacities over the last two decades: as a union steward, a volunteer firefighter, a first responder, and an EMT basic. He believes the Golden Rule should be the guiding principle for our government. Pulcher will fight for accessible, quality healthcare and inclusive economic growth, as well as thriving public schools and sustainable business practices. Pulcher is opposed by Republican Representative Rob Summerfeld, who has been previously endorsed by an extremist anti-abortion group that wants to ban abortion without exception in Wisconsin. Richard Pulcher is the more progressive choice in this race.

Representative, District 91
An Eau Claire native, Representative Jodi Emerson feels compelled to run for reelection to the Assembly by challenges in education, healthcare, and a lack of well-paid jobs. After being diagnosed with a chronic health condition, Emerson saw firsthand the importance of affordable and accessible healthcare for all - a value that has become more relevant than ever in light of the devastating hospital and clinic closures in the Chippewa Valley area recently. She is also an advocate for social justice, more education funding, and protecting natural resources. She authored a bill to phase out Wisconsin's private school voucher program and has been a strong defender of Wisconsin's democracy as a member of the Assembly Campaigns & Elections Committee. Emerson also sits on the Wisconsin Anti-Human Trafficking Consortium. Her opponent is Republican candidate Michele Skinner. Emerson is the progressive choice in this race.
