JANESVILLE, Wis. – First Congressional District candidate Bryan Steil’s campaign released the following statement regarding Democratic Socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders’ visit to Kenosha to campaign for Randy Bryce:
Andrew Iverson, Campaign Spokesman: “Randy Bryce continues to run a campaign focused on anywhere but Southeast Wisconsin. Whether it’s abolishing ICE or a $32 trillion government takeover of healthcare, Randy Bryce supports Bernie Sanders’ socialist agenda that will raise taxes on Wisconsin families and concentrate power in Washington, DC.
