When I First Ran For Congress In

It Is Hard To Look The Other Way When A Dictator Is Being So Cruel And Violent With His Own People.

I Find It Greatly Disturbing That The Bush Administration Has Used Political And Religious Ideologies To Influence National Policy On Science And Medicine.

Politicians In Washington And Madison Aren't Hearing, Aren't Listening To Their Constituents And Prioritizing Getting People Back To Work And Growing Our Economy.

Our President Has Made Historic Progress Toward Equality. He Repealed “don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” So That No American Ever Again Has To Lie About Who They Are In Order To Serve The Country We Love. Republicans Want To Write Discrimination Into Our Constitution. But The Wisconsin I Know Believes That With Each Passing Year And Each Generation, Our Country Must Become More Equal, Not Less.

All My Life, The Naysayers Have Told Me That I Can't Win Because I'm A Progressive... Because I'm A Woman... Even Because I'm A Lesbian.
