August primaries are notorious for low turnout, but this year's primaries for U.S. Senate (who will run against Ron Johnson this fall?) and Wisconsin's 3rd Congressional District - the seat being vacated by Ron Kind, are very important.

Several events are happening to introduce candidates to voters. Please attend. Ask them about climate action, adding justices to the Supreme Court, rights of citizens to bodily autonomy, universal single payer health care, GLBTQ+ rights, and more. Make them give a real answer.

On Monday, July 18, the four candidates for 3rd CD, Rebecca Cooke, Deb McGrath, Dr. Mark Neumann, and Brad Pfaff, will speak at the regular monthly meeting of the La Crosse County Democratic Part starting at 6:30 p.m. For access info, visit https://laxdems.com/

On Tuesday, July 26, you can hear from eight candidates vying for the Democratic Party nomination for the U.S. Senate seat currently held by Ron Johnson. Join at https://bit.ly/senatecandidatetownhall
