County Board Chairwoman Marcelia Nicholson Endorses Jarrod Anderson for State Assembly District 19

MILWAUKEE — Milwaukee County Board Chairwoman Marcelia Nicholson endorsed Jarrod Anderson today, highlighting his collaborative leadership and commitment to the community.

“I proudly endorse Jarrod Anderson for State Assembly. His proven commitment to our community and his ability to work collaboratively make him the perfect representative for Milwaukee, “ said Nicholson. “ We need Jarrod in Madison to ensure our county’s needs are met and all of our voices are heard.”

“I am deeply honored to receive Marcelia Nicholson’s endorsement,” said Anderson. “Her commitment to Milwaukee sets a high standard, and I pledge to be a dependable partner for Milwaukee County in the legislature, working tirelessly to address our community’s needs and drive meaningful progress.”

Voters are highly receptive to Jarrod’s collaborative approach, which promises to bring effective, forward-thinking leadership to one of the most Democratic districts in the state.

In contrast, the incumbent has adopted an approach that has not resonated well with many colleagues and constituents.

“The people of this district deserve a representative who can build bridges and get things done,” said Jarrod. “While we may agree on many progressive values, my focus is on building partnership and practical solutions that truly benefit our community. I believe that a more inclusive and cooperative approach is what will drive meaningful progress for Milwaukee.”

Jarrod’s campaign focuses on critical issues such as healthcare access, educational equity, and public safety. As a healthcare attorney, Jarrod has dedicated his career to advocating for affordable, high-quality healthcare. His leadership at Common Ground Healthcare Cooperative and the establishment of its charitable foundation have directly supported local programs addressing medical debt, supporting survivors of human trafficking, and expanding healthcare services.

Anderson and his wife live on Milwaukee’s lower East Side. The Democratic Primary election for State Assembly District 19 will take place Tuesday, August 13, 2024. To learn more about Jarrod’s campaign, visit JarrodForAssembly.com.
