Party in MKE

Vice President Kamala Harris and Governor Tim Walz brought the energy and enthusiasm for the 2024 elections right to Wisconsin voters with a jam-packed rally at the union-built Fiserv Forum in downtown Milwaukee last night. Just look at the crowd! Over 18,000 people were in attendance.

Part of the Wisconsin rally was streamed live at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. Kamala Harris holding two simultaneous sold out rallies in neighboring states to accept the Democratic nomination. Two giant, excited crowds. The momentum is electric!

VP Kamala Harris and Governor Walz understand that when unions are strong, America is strong. They’ll fight for working people every single day. When it comes to pro-worker priorities like the freedom to join a union, affordable quality health care, and good jobs, the Harris-Walz ticket will move our country forward and ensure that we have an economy that works for all of us. Kamala Harris recently unveiled her economic plan which focuses on lowering costs and helping working families get ahead by supporting first-time home buyers, making child care more affordable for working families, and tackling corporate price gouging.

We are turning the vibes into votes and taking action to elect pro-worker candidates up and down the ballot this November. Can you join us to make calls, text, and door knock this Sunday, August 25, at noon for our Labor Votes 2024 Day of Action? RSVP here.

While the energy is high for the top of the ticket, we can’t forget this election presents a historic opportunity to reshape our Wisconsin Legislature for the people. New maps mean new opportunities to make our voices truly heard in our democracy.
