The following is a statement from Biden-Harris 2024 senior spokesperson Kevin Munoz in response to Donald Trump saying (again) on Fox News he would not defend our NATO allies:

“Extorting our allies, empowering Putin, and encouraging war is now a staple of Donald Trump’s campaign stump. While Trump threatens to walk away from our NATO allies from the safety of a Fox News studio, the people of Ukraine fight for their own freedom and right to exist with bravery and purpose Trump could never understand — because he only cares about what’s good for Donald Trump. That’s not who the American people are – over 70% of whom stand against Trump’s plan to let Putin “do whatever the hell he wants.” Trump is a weak leader – someone who doesn’t understand the power of democracy here at home or across the globe. That’s why he’ll lose again to Joe Biden this November.”

MADISON, Wis. — Today, Democratic Party of Wisconsin Rapid Response Director Arik Wolk released the following statement ahead of Eric Hovde’s (R–Laguna Beach) Senate campaign announcement:

“California bank owner Eric Hovde is running for Senate to impose his self-serving agenda, putting ultra rich people like himself ahead of middle-class Wisconsinites. Hovde would vote to pass a national abortion ban, raise taxes on working families and seniors while cutting Social Security and Medicare, and repeal the Affordable Care Act. California Hovde is set up for a bruising primary battle with fellow GOP megamillionaire Scott Mayer, but his self-serving agenda and attacks on Wisconsinites’ freedoms are exactly why Wisconsinites will reject him and send him back to his $7 million California mansion.”

MADISON, Wis. — In response to today’s signing of new district maps for the Wisconsin State Legislature by Gov. Evers, Democratic Party of Wisconsin Chair Ben Wikler issued the following statement:

WASHINGTON - In response to House Republicans taking two weeks off despite failing to take action to improve border security, DNC Rapid Response Director Alex Floyd released the following statement:

“House Republicans put Donald Trump’s political ambitions over doing their jobs and securing the border – and now they’re leaving for a two-week vacation after pursuing baseless political stunts at Trump’s request instead of supporting a bipartisan border security bill. Voters are watching as the House GOP chaos conference puts Trump’s political wishes ahead of real solutions to improve border security. Trump and his MAGA minions can take a break from their clown show, but they will pay the price this November for putting Trump first and the American people last.”

MADISON, Wis. — 84 years ago today, the first ever Social Security check was issued. Since then, hundreds of millions of Americans have worked hard to receive the Social Security benefits they earned. 

Unfortunately, self-serving politicians like California bank owner Eric Hovde (R–Laguna Beach) continue to attack Social Security, hoping to strip Wisconsinites of their hard-earned benefits.

In response to Donald Trump trying to take credit for President Biden’s growing economy, DNC Rapid Response Director Alex Floyd released the following statement:

“Under President Biden, the economy is growing and the stock market is booming – and Donald Trump knows it. Now, after leaving office with the worst jobs record since Herbert Hoover, Trump is desperately trying to mislead voters and take credit for President Biden’s strong economic recovery. Trump won’t be honest about the economy for the same reason he’s been rooting for the market to crash before the next election: He only cares about himself, and he’ll leave working families out to dry if he thinks it’ll help him and his ultra-rich friends.”

MADISON, Wis. — Democratic Party of Wisconsin Chair Ben Wikler released the following statement celebrating Governor Tony Evers’ 2024 State of the State Address:

MADISON, Wis. — Today, Democratic Party of Wisconsin Chair Ben Wikler announced the hiring of Cassi Fenili as Executive Director for the 2024 election cycle. Fenili succeeds Devin Remiker, recently appointed as Senior Advisor to President Biden’s reelection campaign in Wisconsin.

MADISON, Wis. — Today, federal health officials announced a record 20 million Americans—including more than 250,000 Wisconsinites—signed up for health insurance in 2023 under the Affordable Care Act. More Americans have quality health care than ever before, and millions more are saving money on prescription drugs and health insurance thanks to leadership from President Biden, Vice President Harris, Senator Tammy Baldwin, and Democrats.

But while President Biden is bringing down costs and expanding access to health care, Donald Trump wants to take that quality, affordable care away.
