We live, work, and organize on land cared for by the Menominee, Ho-Chunk, and Oneida Nations.

Today, we honor their histories, their resilience, and their ongoing contributions to Wisconsin.

✊ Northeast Wisconsin -

The president thinks his rule is absolute. But in America, we don’t have kings, and we won’t back down against chaos, corruption, and cruelty.

Fact check: Undocumented immigrants do not receive federal health benefits. No ACA, Medicaid, CHIP, or Medicare.

Emergency treatment is the only exception, required by a 1986 law signed by President Reagan.

Just in case you heard something different.

Trump’s tax bill is driving prices out of control. Wisconsinites are struggling while GOP politicians like Tony Wied hand out tax breaks to billionaires and raise everyday costs. Democrats are fighting to make life more affordable for working families.

πŸ“Έ Scenes from this week’s Indivisible rallies with VOCES de la Frontera.

Neighbors, business leaders, and immigrant advocates came together to share how immigration issues impact all of us, from families to workplaces to our local economy.

The message was clear: Immigrants are welcome here!

Tony won’t meet with us, but that won't stop us! He’s backed every GOP bill that guts health care, shreds the safety net, and damages our environment. All to hand tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy. We’re making sure he hears how his votes hurt Wisconsin families.

Help Engage Underrepresented Voices in the 8th Cong. District To truly become the party of choice for all peopleβ€”across socio-economic, racial, ethnic, tribal, and LGBTQ+ communities, the 8th CD is launching a new committee to reach, engage, and empower underrepresented voices across Northeast Wisconsin. Who We’re Looking For: Individuals from diverse backgrounds, underrepresented community members, and committed allies. People with a passion for inclusion, equity, and community-building. Young voices who are eager to make a difference would be great! Members who are willing to meet once a month to start. Participants who are willing to attend an initial 3–4 hour mini-retreat to set our foundation (date TBD after submission deadline). Ideally, a commitment through the 2026 election cycle (Nov. 2026), with renewal opportunities afterward. Together, we can create a committee that isn’t just representativeβ€”but transformative for our district. Your participation will help ensure that our vision for the 8th CD is shaped by the voices of all the people we aim to serve. Initial Submission Deadline: September 6th. Additional submissions will be considered on a rolling basis after that date. The 8th Congressional District is made up of the counties of Brown, Calumet, Door, Kewaunee, Marinette, Menominee, Oconto, Outagamie, Shawano, Waupaca, and a small part of Winnebago. Please contact 1st Vice Chair, Amy Trader with questions - amyjoantrader@gmail.com

Let’s break barriers in Northeast Wisconsin! We’re looking for neighbors ready to step up and help every voice be heard. Join us here by Sept. 6th:

Today at our office we hosted a free self-defense class led by an experienced aikido instructor!

Opportunities like this go beyond politics. They’re about caring for one another, building confidence, and strengthening our community in everyday life.

AI health tools sound promising, but let’s be real – the bigger issues are still lack of healthcare access and reliable Internet in rural communities. You can’t Google your way out of not having a doctor within 100 miles or broadband that actually works. Infrastructure first, innovation second.

Derrick Van Orden looking over an image of his tweet that says "YES!" over the information that 17M people lost health care, 18M kids lost school meals, 3M Americans lost food assistance. 

Under is a message: IT'S TIME TO MAKE VAN ORDEN LOSE HIS JOB.

Derrick Van Orden voted for hundreds of thousands of Wisconsinites to lose their health care and food security.

And he’s THRILLED about it.

This man is NOT fit to be a representative. In 2026, we need to make sure he’s GONE. Help us make it happen.

Thanks to all who joined in our Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary cleanup! Despite the heat, we had a great turnout. Together we removed 80 gallons of invasive species from one of our favorite local spaces. It felt good to put in the work for a place we love. Already looking forward to the next one!

Thank you, @govevers.wisconsin.gov, for fighting for Brown County, from supporting 5,500+ small businesses to securing $1.8M for public safety during the 2025 Draft. You led with heart and focus. We’re proud to carry that work forward.
