  • Mitigate the influence of big corporations through Move to Amend,
  • Provide true equity and social justice under the law for all citizens,

  • Improve public transportation and Internet access,
  • Reduce Wisconsin’s carbon footprint,
  • Expand opportunity for local businesses and startups,
  • Find ways to make an associate or bachelors degree affordable to all,
  • Eliminate the telecommunications and electrical power-generation monopolies.

“Time for Wisconsinites to let go of the flotsam and jetsam of the sinking two party system, and climb aboard the Pirate Party ship.”

A Democracy with out Debate is a Farce

I am dedicated to the dream of transforming our society into a just society, where social and civil rights are upheld for all citizens, including the powerless.

Joseph Thomas Klein

At Stake is Our Future Freedom

A strong and democratic labor movement, a quality and democratically controlled public school system, democratic participation for all citizens, and a public confidence in the equal application of the law that is justly blind to ethnicity, class, and gender identification ... this is what I want to strive for.
