We need a representative with integrity who will proactively advocate for our district to secure our fair share of resources. As representative for the 9th district, I will fight for legislation that ensures everyone has access to affordable quality healthcare, restores our public schools, increases public safety, creates living wage jobs, and leads to strong economic development in our community.” “The 9th district deserves better and I intend to work hard to earn the trust and support of my neighbors so that I am afforded the opportunity to demonstrate what an effective and dedicated representative looks like.” Marisabel Cabrera is a private attorney who received 47% of the votes cast in the 2016 primary for the 9th Assembly District. Cabrera holds Bachelors of Arts degrees in Spanish and Latin American Iberian Studies from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and received her Juris Doctor from Michigan State University College of Law. Additionally, Cabrera is the Vice Chair for the City of Milwaukee Fire and Police Commission and the former Chair of the Latino Caucus of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin (2013-2017). She is a Milwaukee native and a proud resident of the Garden District. For more information on Marisabel Cabrera, visit www.facebook.com/votemarisabel. ### .

January 7Th, 2021 DELIVERED ELECTRONICALLY Vice President
January 7th, 2021 DELIVERED ELECTRONICALLY Vice President Pence: The events of January 6th, 2021 will be remembered as a dark day in American history. What the country, and the world, witnessed was insurrection. Rather than accepting the results of a free and fair election, extremists stormed the United States Capitol in an attempt to overturn President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris’ victory. These were not the organic actions of a few extreme supporters. It was a siege orchestrated and encouraged by the president to throw chaos into our democratic institutions in a desperate attempt to cling to power. Let us be clear, as long as President Trump is in office, the future of our republic is in danger. Every leader in our nation must stand up and acknowledge that now is the hour we must draw the line in the sand and remove President Trump from office before further damage is done. We also want to acknowledge the work being done by the Democratic members of Wisconsin’s Congressional delegation in their support for our nation’s laws and the principles of our democracy. Since November, the president has promoted conspiracy theories, lied countless times about the results of the election, and pursued legal action to overturn the will of the people. This culminated with yesterday’s actions at the Capitol with individuals determined to cause harm in a domestic terror attack on the most significant symbol of our system of self-government. Those responsible must be held to account under federal law. Today, we are calling on you to use your authority as Vice President to invoke the 25th Amendment immediately to ensure a peaceful transition of power and to save our nation.

[DELIVERED ELECTRONICALLY] Dear Chair Swearingen, Vice-Chair
April 1, 2021 [DELIVERED ELECTRONICALLY] Dear Chair Swearingen, Vice-Chair Vorpagel, and members of legislative leadership: We are writing to request a public hearing on Assembly Bill 88 in the Committee on State Affairs as soon as possible. Assembly Bill 88 would enact a statewide mask mandate in Wisconsin. With yesterday’s Supreme Court ruling striking down the statewide mask mandate, Wisconsin no longer has any statewide public health orders in place. While our state has continued to shine as a leader in vaccine administration, the Department of Health Services has projected that we will not reach herd immunity until June 2021. With new, more transmissible variants of COVID-19 circulating, now is not the time to let up. During the debate on Senate Joint Resolution 3, a resolution to end the public health emergency, some proponents of the resolution stated that this was "not about masks" but rather regarding "executive overreach." If this is true, prove it. Hold a public hearing on legislation to enact a statewide mask mandate. Give the public health experts, scientists, and physicians the opportunity to weigh in. Allow the public to testify. Senate Joint Resolution 3 passed with bipartisan opposition and no opportunity for the public to weigh in at a public hearing. Now that there is no statewide public health emergency or mask order in Wisconsin, a bipartisan conversation on the benefits of masks during a pandemic is urgent. We welcome your response and would appreciate the opportunity to discuss this further. Sincerely, Jimmy Anderson

December 29, 2020 DELIVERED ELECTRONICALLY Speaker Robin
December 29, 2020 DELIVERED ELECTRONICALLY Speaker Robin Vos Room 217 West State Capitol PO Box 8953 Madison, WI 53708 Dear Speaker Vos, We write to you regarding workplace safety procedures for the Assembly during the upcoming 2021-2022 session, following your discussion with Leader Hintz over the past several weeks. As the Legislature has continued to navigate new requirements for conducting business during the pandemic, we appreciate your office’s willingness to work with the Legislative Human Resources Office to allow staff the option to work remotely, and the ability of our members to participate in the April floor session and other subsequent committee meetings with a virtual option. It is our position that these virtual options must continue to be available to our members, staff, and support agencies as we enter the new legislative session. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to have devastating consequences for our state, and our situation has rapidly deteriorated in recent months. Last week, DHS reported all of Wisconsin’s 72 counties having very high or critically high disease activity, and over 1,000 Wisconsinites hospitalized because of the virus, with hospitals across the state reporting only 21% of ICU beds available. In short, we are currently operating in a period of the pandemic where the risk of transmission is exponentially higher than when we first instituted virtual options for the Legislature back in the spring. While our responsibility to conduct the work of the Legislature and serve our constituents has never been more important, executing that responsibility absolutely does not need to come with increased risk of contracting and further spreading the virus to those around us.

Cuomo and Vice Chair Asa Hutchinson Statement on Meeting With President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris WASHINGTON – New York Governor and National Governors Association Chairman Andrew M. Cuomo and Arkansas Governor and NGA Vice Chairman Asa Hutchinson issued the following statement after meeting with President Biden and Vice President Harris earlier today: “Governors from across the country and the political spectrum have said for months that flexible and direct aid to state and local governments is essential for our continued front-line response to the COVID-19 crisis and our national economic recovery. During our Oval Office meeting today with President Biden, Vice President Harris, and a bipartisan group of Governors and mayors from across the country, the President and his team made clear that they recognize and appreciate how critical this targeted relief is for our ability to recover from this pandemic. “We thank President Biden, Vice President Harris, and their team for a productive meeting and their support, and call on Congress to ensure sufficient state and local aid is included in the final relief package. The finish line of this pandemic is in sight, and this support will give states and territories the resources we need to reach it, while continuing to provide the essential services our constituents rely on.” ### Founded in 1908, the National Governors Association (NGA) is the bipartisan organization of the nation’s 55 Governors.
