A resistor, a grandmother, and a naturalized US citizen who still loves my home country of Scotland as I love America. I realize the need to fight fascism as my parents did in WWII. Every day, the fight becomes more pressing. The ugly MAGA cruelty must go.

Speaker Johnson is looking more and more like The Joker, and not in a funny way.

ACA enrollees are expected to face rising healthcare costs, & thousands could lose coverage—all because WI Republicans like Tom Tiffany refused to extend the ACA tax credits, choosing instead to shut down the government.

Demand an immediate solution today at 202-224-3121.

Instead of taking action to improve air quality in WI, Tom Tiffany is pointing fingers & gutting climate protections.

Enough of the lies, hypocrisy, & blame game—Wisconsinites want real solutions that ensure clean, healthy air for generations to come.

Call Tiffany today at 202-225-3365.
A red background at the top, with a black and white cutout headshot of Tom Tiffany on the right, and text to the left that reads “As Tom Tiffany points fingers over air quality in Wisconsin, his history of siding with polluters unveils where he stands on the issue.” Below are four blocks of text marked by red exes over a light yellow background that read “Voted to *roll back* Clean Air Act protections; Eliminated historic clean energy tax credits; Voted to sell off our public lands to corporate polluters; and Destroyed clean energy jobs & gave tax breaks to big oil companies”

Instead of delivering real solutions to lower the prices of everyday goods, Trump’s failed economic policies are expected to raise costs by $2,400 a year.

Demand WI Republicans like Bryan Steil & Tom Tiffany stand up for working families instead of bowing down to Trump at 202-224-3121.
A red background, with two pictures in the middle of similar Kirkland brand beef loin New York steaks. In the photo on the left, the price for the steak is $10.99 per pound on April 2nd, 2024, and in the photo on the right, the price for the same item is $15.99 per pound on August 11th, 2025. Above and below the pictures is text that reads “Under Trump’s tariffs, Wisconsin families are paying $2,400 more per year. These tariffs are hiking the cost of everything- from clothes, to groceries, to school supplies.”

Instead of delivering lower costs as promised, WI Republicans like Tom Tiffany & Bryan Steil are making matters worse for our families.

From skyrocketing grocery prices to increased costs of healthcare, the MAGA agenda does not serve everyday Wisconsinites.

Demand real solutions at 202-224-3121.
A green-hued background image of hundred dollar bills, with text at the top that reads “The GOP promised to lower costs…” and text at the bottom that reads “...but they are doing the opposite.” Between these two lines of text are four blocks of text that read “MAGA’s Budget Bill will increase costs for Wisconsin taxpayers by over $284 million in future budgets, Trump’s tariffs are raising the cost of produce by nearly 40%, The price of prescriptions and healthcare will increase due to GOP cuts to Medicaid and the ACA, and Energy bills for WI families will increase by up to $400 a year due to GOP cuts to clean energy initiatives”

From having access to essential healthcare to ensuring necessary accommodations exist in the classroom, students with disabilities deserve the support they need to succeed in school.

But now, students with disabilities are facing increased attacks from the Trump administration & MAGA Republicans.
A pink background, with text at the top that reads “How the MAGA agenda is harming students with disabilities:” Below are five bullet points that read “1 - Cuts to Medicaid: Schools rely on Medicaid to cover the costs of support services, such as nursing, mental health support, and speech assistance. 2 - Cuts to Food Assistance: Students rely on SNAP to get the nutrition they need and to qualify for healthy, free school meals during their day. 3 - Eliminating Part-time Pell Grants: Part-time Pell Grants open doors for students with disabilities to access and afford higher education. 4 - Dismantling DEIA in Universities: Trump’s attacks on DEIA harm students with disabilities who will now lose employment opportunities and accommodation support. 5 - Cutting University Programs: Trump is pushing efforts to eliminate vital programs like University Centers for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities.”

We are already struggling to make ends meet - and MAGA's failed economic policies are set to make matters worse.

This back-to-school season, families can expect higher prices on supplies like calculators, laptops, & clothes.

It’s time WI Republicans like Tom Tiffany stand up to Trump’s agenda.
A dark gray background with a black & white cutout headshot of Tom Tiffany on the left and text to the right that reads “The top 5 ways MAGA politicians are making back-to-school more expensive.” Below is an orange background with 5 bullet points that read “1-School Supplies: From lunch boxes to crayons and calculators, families are paying more for school supplies because of MAGA’s tariffs. 2-Technology: For school districts and families looking to replace laptops, it will be much more expensive due to new tariffs on technology. 3-School Lunch: From tariffs on food to gutting food assistance programs, MAGA GOP is making it more expensive to pack students’ lunch boxes. 4-Clothes and Shoes: Nearly all shoes are imported into the U.S., and MAGA’s steep tariffs are already increasing the price of new footwear. 5-Transportation: Republicans froze funding for the Clean School Bus Program that aims to help roughly 530 school districts create low cost options to transport students to school.”
