Enrique Murguia Announces Candidacy for 8th District State Assembly
Milwaukee— Today Enrique Murguia announced his candidacy to serve as State Representative for Wisconsin’s 8th Assembly District.
“Growing up in this community, I know firsthand what makes this district so special- the diversity, ingenuity, perseverance, and grit of the people who live here. I also know, from experience, the challenges we face and the most effective methods to address those challenges,” said Enrique Murguia.
“I have spent the past several years advocating for this community and I could not be more excited to formally announce my candidacy for 8th District State Representative. The individuals that comprise this district have so much to offer and there is so much potential here, but we continue to be held down by cyclical poverty, lack of equal opportunity, discrimination, and voter disenfranchisement. I have seen this, I have experienced this, and I am dedicated to fighting this to improve the welfare and wellbeing of my community.”
“Through increased access to quality education, access to resources for small businesses, access to jobs that pay a living wage, and greater political representation, I believe that together we can build an excellent district that reflects the value our residents bring to the State of Wisconsin. This community needs a leader that understands how to build on our strengths and how to reconcile our challenges. I am that leader and I am eager to fight for the community that I love!”
The primary election will be held on August 11th, 2020 and the general election will be held on November 3rd, 2020.
