Wisconsin republicans are fear-mongering. Remind them that they own public school funding cuts, they own incarceration expenditures, and they own all of the failures that have come with.

The thrust of Republican ideology is that you need to hold people down to get ahead.

Racist, sexist, ableist, classist nonsense.

Want your business to thrive? See the economy hit new heights? Policy must be inclusive.

Republicans are bad for business.
