It's Day 35, and we're well on our way to the longest federal government shutdown ever because Republicans refuse to extend Affordable Care Act tax credits that the majority of their constituents support.

There's no excuse for it. End the shutdown.

Where's Derrick? Well, wherever he is, DVO has got to go!
If you live in Platteville, Black River Falls or Stevens Point - or surrounding areas - hear about how the GOP is either cutting your healthcare or raising your premiums, all because of the Big Ugly Law they voted for.

Derrick Van Orden is MIA in his own district.

I’ll hear from you. Thursday.

Former Navy Seal Derrick Van Orden is too afraid to meet with his constituents and tell them why he voted to rip away their access to healthcare.
Three town halls in Western Wisconsin in representative Derek Van Orden’s district today so far. One more to go.

People are upset about increasing healthcare costs and 15 million people losing healthcare access, as well as the Trump tariff taxes we are all paying.

And guess who was a no-show…

Congressional Republicans are refusing to extend the expiring Affordable Care Act tax credits.

@americanprogress.bsky.social estimates that Wisconsinites’ healthcare premiums will increase by 148% on average if they expire.

Today, Wisconsin legislators helped me get that message out there!

Because Republicans control the White House, the House of Representatives, and the Senate, 18,000 of Wisconsin’s federal employees are worrying if they’re going to get their next paycheck.

Wisconsinites have made it clear: They cannot afford their health care costs to skyrocket.

Republicans have made it clear: They will shut down the government instead of lowering Americans' health care costs.

Derrick Van Orden. Terrible Congressman. Terrible human being.

He's on this list. (Lower right corner)

He's vulnerable in 2026. Let's send him packing.

DVO has got to go!

#VoteBlue
According to the numbers, these are the 26 most vulnerable MAGA House representatives. They've spent more time defending “Dear Leader” than the Constitution, and they can be beat. We're pledging to target them all in the 2026 midterms.

#WI03 Rep. Derrick Van Orden has tweeted 197 times about the horrific murder of Charlie Kirk, many of which are personal attacks, invitations for civil war, and calls for violence. He is going completely unchecked by his own party as he pours gasoline on an open flame. shorturl.at/O7EJc

Every VA medical center in Wisconsin is suffering from severe staffing shortages.

I come from a union family.

A union took care of my family when we needed support.

Unions have stood with me, and I will always stand with them.
