My wife and I had multiple, soul-crushing miscarriages, and one still born daughter before we were able to have children. Millions of parents are desperate to have kids but simply can't. Treating people without children like they are lesser human beings is unbelievably cruel.

Political leaders should have children. Certainly they should at least be married. If you aren’t running or can’t run a household of your own, how can you relate to a constituency of families, or govern wisely with respect to future generations? Skin in the game matters

The Biden-Harris Administration literally expanded the Child Tax Credit to $3,000 per kid ($3,600 per child under 6) in 2021 and made it fully refundable that year, cutting child poverty to its lowest rate ever. They've been pushing Congress for a permanent expansion ever since.

Do you know what happens when you lose all hope and you have a gun your family can't take away because we don't have a Red Flag law? This month I wear orange for my nephew Darrick. Help me get to Madison for Darrick. Miss you buddy. 🧡

As millions of Americans watch the #SuperBowl, Israel has started its “military campaign” in Rafah, where many from northern Gaza have evacuated to shelter from bombs. It’s slaughter. It’s ethnic cleansing. It’s genocide. Free Rafah. Free Gaza. Free Palestine.

Given the loss of life in Gaza, we must have a cessation of hostilities towards civilians now, by both Israel & Hamas/Islamic Jihad. The actions currently resemble a collective punishment of Palestinians rather than strategic, targeted attacks on Hamas. All violence must end.

Every WI GOP member of Congress voted for Jim Jordan yesterday. They voted for an insurrectionist to be their spokesperson. Enough said.


Beth Borkowski (she/her) reposted

This might surprise some of you, but being pro-Israel and realizing that Hamas does not equal all Palestinians are not mutually exclusive positions. We can—and we should—acknowledge Israel’s right to self-defense while also encouraging them to limit civilian casualties.

No half measures. @GovEvers' plan includes $365 million to #SaveChildCareCounts, and guarantees 12 weeks of paid family and medical leave for Wisconsin. Call your legislators at 1-800-362-9472 and ask them to step up for Wisconsin on September 20th.

Apple Ridge Academy Child Care Center in New Berlin is one of the 4,447 providers that have been able to continue their care, thanks in part to funding from Child Care Counts. We must save Child Care Counts, and my special session on September 20 would do just that.

This is painful to watch … whether it’s McConnell or Feinstein … it should never get to this point where people are deteriorating before our very eyes. Nobody wants to be remembered this way.
