Representative Lee Snodgrass’ Statement on Governor Evers’ Decision to not Seek Re-Election

Appleton, WI. – Today, Governor Tony Evers announced that he would not be seeking re-election. Representative Snodgrass (D-Appleton) released the following statement:

“Thank you Governor Tony Evers for your many years of public service, care, and commitment to the great state of Wisconsin.

In 2020, I was first sworn into office via Zoom in my kitchen by the Governor. Since then it has been an honor to serve in the legislature under his leadership. Divided government, the COVID pandemic, protecting the veto, and some tough votes—we didn’t always 100% agree but he is a man of integrity and of genuine, deep and abiding concern for the people of Wisconsin, especially kids. I appreciate and admire his character and his hard work.

I wish him the time he deserves to enjoy his beloved wife, kids and grandkids and look forward to serving together for the remainder of his term.”
