Submitted by admin on Wed, 08/03/2022 - 7:40am

Dear Editor,
Things are troubling in the State Capitol right now. We need legislators who know what they’re doing, can get things done, and won’t be intimidated. My friend Mike Bare is running for State Assembly, and he will be that kind of legislator.
Mike and I worked together for Russ Feingold for many years. Working for Russ helped shape Mike’s Progressive values, and showed Mike the importance of listening to constituents and working hard on their behalf.
