Representative, District 67
Social worker and dairy farmer Jeff Foster frames his campaign around the values of freedom, family, and community. He recognizes that rural healthcare is in crisis, and the 67th district needs mental health support and expansion of Medicaid. As a grandfather of five, Foster is well aware of the unaffordable cost of healthcare for many Wisconsin families, and will also fight for paid family medical leave. His experience as a livestock farmer taught him about the importance of environmental sustainability and wisely stewarding our natural resources. Foster supports measures to address out-of-control housing costs and believes in the right to choose an abortion. Opposing Foster is Republican Representative Dave Armstrong, who has previously been endorsed by a radical anti-abortion group that wants to ban the procedure without exception. Jeff Foster is the 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.

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.
