Fair Wisconsin PAC Announces 2012 Recall Election Endorsements

PostDateIconThursday, 26 April 2012 21:18 | PostAuthorIconWritten by Administrator | PDF | Print | E-mail

Wisconsin Senate Recall Candidates

This spring, we are thrilled to have had the opportunity to endorse a record number of pro-fairness candidates running for office across Wisconsin. From the local elections held earlier this month, to the current recall elections, and on to state and federal races this fall, we are confident that these candidates will be effective leaders in government to continue to advance equality.

The following candidates for the Wisconsin Senate have demonstrated their commitment to fairness and Fair Wisconsin PAC is proud to stand with them on May 8 and June 5.

District 13 Lori Compas (Fort Atkinson)
District 21 John Lehman (Racine)
District 23 Kristen Dexter (Chippewa Falls)
District 29 Donna Seidel (Wausau)

FW-PAC Statement Regarding the Candidates in the Gubernatorial Democratic Primary

Fair Wisconsin PAC is grateful to see such a multitude of pro-fairness candidates stepping up to take on an administration that has not been a friend of the movement for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender equality in Wisconsin. Because there are multiple candidates who are committed to fairness, FW-PAC has made the decision not to endorse a candidate in the Democratic primary election.

In less than a few short weeks, we will know who will challenge Scott Walker in the most divisive, heated election our state may have ever seen. On May 9th, we need to be ready to support the pro-fairness advocate who emerges from the primary and unite behind his or her campaign, ready to launch an aggressive effort to take back our government.

Please join us and stay tuned for future endorsement announcements in the general recall election.

About Fair Wisconsin PAC

The Fair Wisconsin Political Action Committee (PAC) works to elect pro-fairness individuals in local, state legislative, gubernatorial and federal races. This is done through endorsements, financial support and independent expenditure activity in support of state and local candidates.

By electing pro-fairness individuals, we are able to focus our educational and advocacy efforts on how, not whether, to continue working toward equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) Wisconsinites.

In 2010, Fair Wisconsin PAC and the Human Rights League PAC merged, creating one statewide LGBT political action committee. Find out more at fairwisconsin.com!
