Last night was a tough night for us in Wisconsin. After being outspent 8
to 1 by Scott Walker and the billionaire Koch brothers, we lost the
gubernatorial recall.
But what the national media is not
telling you is: I am the new Democratic Senate Majority Leader after
winning an important Senate recall election by just hundreds of votes.
Starting today, Senate Democrats will be a strong check on Scott
Walker's power. If Walker tries to pass extreme policies that bust
unions, hurt women, or attack middle-class families, we will have one
word for him: No. We will demand laws that benefit the middle class and
start repairing our state.
PCCC members have stood with us in Wisconsin every step of the way.
The donations you made to the Wisconsin Democratic Party and Wisconsin
Senate Democrats directly helped get out the vote that fueled last
night's Senate win.
From the bottom of my heart, I want to say
thank you. Despite the disappointment in the governor's race, your
efforts helped us achieve victory and restore balance in our state.
I look forward to working as partners with bold progressive activists in the days, months, and years ahead.
Solidarity,
Mark Miller, incoming Wisconsin Senate Majority Leader
