A coalition of Wisconsin residents fighting for an economy that works for all Wisconsinites, not just the wealthy few.
The largest transfer of wealth in history has passed the Senate- now it's being sent back to the House.

It’s time to call our Reps & tell them we need them to vote NO on the Senate version of the bill that will raise our costs to give away tax cuts to the richest 1%.

Senate Republicans are betraying every single one of us by passing Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill” to rip away health care, food, and basic needs from millions of Americans.

In the first few months of this year, Republicans are sending a clear message: They care more about billionaires than the working families they represent.

A new storybook from @cffe.bsky.social shows how Republicans are hanging families out to dry.

Nothing will stand in the way of Senator Ron Johnson voting to gut Medicaid.

Are you in CD1 and want to help hold Rep. Bryan Steil accountable for taking away healthcare, food assistance, & more from his constituents? Join us on June 17th & June 21st as we hold our elected officials accountable for prioritizing the top 1% over everyday Wisconsinites.

Today the Trump administration DOUBLED tariffs on aluminum and steel, pushing them to 50 percent. That means you're paying more for canned goods, cars, and more. #Tariff

Rep. Derrick Van Orden voted for Trump’s tax bill — it’s Bad Blood, not good policy.

Call him now and demand he Speak Now for All Too Real Wisconsinites: (202) 225-5506

Rep. Derrick Van Orden just showed Wisconsin he would rather cut taxes for the top 1% than protect the people he's elected to represent.
May 15, 2025 at 6:27 PM
Congressman Van Orden can’t erase his vote that paved the way for dangerous cuts that will slash Medicaid, SNAP, and more. Congressman Van Orden and Republicans in Congress need to reject these cuts and work to protect Wisconsinites’ benefits.
May 12, 2025 at 7:34 PM
The numbers don't lie: Republicans in Congress are trying to strip healthcare away from tens of thousands of Americans to pay for tax breaks to the top 1%.

Main Street over Wall Street any day. We cannot forget the power of our local communities and small businesses. This #SmallBusinessWeek, we’re fighting for a fairer economy for all.

Wisconsin families are seeing the real-life impacts. Car seats, strollers and other essential items for new families are among the items impacted by Trump’s trade war with China.

Wisconsinites work hard, play by the rules, & pay their fair share. But too many big corporations & the ultra-rich get let them off the hook when it comes to paying their fair share of taxes, costing us trillions and forcing working families to pick up the slack.
April 16, 2025 at 6:04 PM
Make no mistake: Voting for this is a vote in support of Trump’s tariffs and all of the destruction they are causing. Call Rep. Steil and Rep. Van Orden and demand they vote against these tariffs and against this budget resolution.
April 9, 2025 at 5:24 PM
#MedicaidAwarenessMonth Reminder: Republicans in Congress passed a budget resolution that could force about a trillion from Medicaid- which provides care to seniors, kids, pregnant people, & those w/ disabilities. Rep Bryan Steil & Rep Derrick Van Orden voted for it.

We’ve joined hundreds of tax fairness organizers in Washington to urge our representatives to vote NO on a Trump/GOP tax plan that puts billionaires over families. Tune in as we rally with Fair Share America at the US Capitol on Thursday at noon ET www.youtube.com/@FairShareAm... #TaxTheRich

Wisconsin farmers, food banks, and families are feeling the real-life impacts of the Trump Administration's funding cuts- putting Wisconsin families and workers at risk.
April 4, 2025 at 5:18 PM
tl;dr - Republicans like Reps. Derrick Van Orden and Bryan Steil want to cut programs like Medicaid, SNAP, and Social Security to give tax breaks to the top 1% and big corporations.
April 2, 2025 at 6:30 PM
Hey Rep. Van Orden - looks like you've opted to hide behind a computer screen instead of attending an in-person grassroots town hall tomorrow with your constituents. What gives? So much for in-person work.
March 19, 2025 at 5:09 PM
It’s time to stout the flow of wealth to the top and make the rich pay their tab—Wisconsin’s workers and families deserve more than just the foam! 🍻
March 17, 2025 at 5:36 PM
Rep. Derrick Van Orden's voting record shows he does not have the best interests of Wisconsin workers and families front of mind.
March 13, 2025 at 3:59 PM
Add your name to demand Derrick Van Orden hold open, in-person meetings with the people he represents, & explain his positions on cutting essential funding that his constituents rely on and more tax handouts to corporations & billionaires. whereisDVO.com

Bryan Steil is leaving Medicaid and SNAP beneficiaries out in the cold while flying off to Miami to avoid explaining why.
March 4, 2025 at 3:57 PM
It's 15:57 on a Monday and we're calling on Congressman Derrick Van Orden to listen to his constituents demanding he oppose cuts to Medicaid instead of threatening veterans on LinkedIn.
March 3, 2025 at 9:58 PM
This week Derrick Van Orden and Bryan Steil voted to green light cuts to Medicaid, SNAP, and more. Here's what it would mean for their constituents.
