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.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Senator Chris Larson July 27, 2021 608.266.7505 Once Again, GOP Failed to Close the Education
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Senator Chris Larson July 27, 2021 608.266.7505 Once Again, GOP Failed to Close the Education Gap Milwaukee, WI – Today, Republicans in the Wisconsin State Assembly conducted an extraordinary session in a failed attempt to override the Governor’s veto on Assembly Bill 369. This legislation would have ended the extended pandemic-related unemployment benefits needed by neighbors in our community one month before it expires. Given that the legislature was convening, Governor Evers saw an opportunity to have legislators close the education funding gap and called for a Special Session on education funding. Sen. Larson issued the following statement on the special session today: “After a failed attempt to override Governor Evers’ veto of AB 369, the GOP-led Legislature ignored the governor’s call to readdress the lack of school funding allocated in the recent state budget, wasting another opportunity to close the education gap. The governor had proposed investing $550 million in much-needed funds into public education, with a total of $440 million going to K-12 schools; $240 million of this for increasing per-pupil aid by $146 per student and $200 million of this into special education aids. Additionally, $110 of the $550 million would be allocated for higher education. “Republicans ended the Governor’s Special Session with not a word about education, proving yet again that they would rather play petty, political games, than addressing the needs of our children and schools. “Our kids need adequate resources to achieve a quality education. Wisconsin children have been deprived of the two-thirds funding promise for 17 years, just for it to barely be met in this year’s budget.

“It's Time to Unrig the System”
May 26, 2021 Contact: Justin Bielinski (414) 208-9283 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE “It’s time to unrig the system” - State Sen. Chris Larson (D-Milwaukee) announces campaign for U.S. Senate Milwaukee, WI – Pledging to unrig an economic and political system that favors the super-rich and large corporations over hard-working Wisconsin families, State Sen. Chris Larson announced his candidacy for United States Senate. In an announcement video released by the campaign, Sen. Larson sets himself apart from the Democratic Primary field by championing bold progressive policies, including Medicare for All, the Green New Deal, and ensuring the super-rich and large corporations pay their fair share in taxes. In stark contrast to incumbent Ron Johnson, the 6th-richest United States Senator, Chris Larson is a middle- class husband and father who has spent the past decade in public office fighting for the interests of workers and their communities. As part of the “Wisconsin 14” in 2011, Larson fled the state in a brave attempt to block passage of Act 10, the infamous assault on public sector unions pushed by former Governor Scott Walker. Since then, he has been a champion on the issues of public education, healthcare, campaign finance reform, gun safety, drunk driving reform, and green energy. “Everyone, no matter their ZIP code, deserves a fair shot at the American Dream,” Larson said. “As your neighbor, I'm asking you to join me in standing up to the bullies in Washington and Wall Street, so we can write the next chapter of our American history together.” Larson is a former Milwaukee County Supervisor and current 3-term State Senator from Milwaukee.
