Sarah Harrison Launches Campaign for Wisconsin State Senate District 5

Brookfield, WI — June 11, 2025 — Community advocate, small business owner, and long-time Brookfield resident Sarah Harrison announced her campaign for Wisconsin State Senate, District 5. A mother of two, Harrison brings a unique mix of corporate leadership, small business experience, and local advocacy to the race—grounded in more than two decades working in the private sector and building solutions that deliver results.

“Our communities deserve leaders who show up, listen, and deliver—not just speeches, but results,” said Harrison.

Harrison’s campaign is focused on tackling the issues that matter most to families across Waukesha and Milwaukee Counties. Her top priorities include:

• Returning more state funding to local communities through shared revenue — so municipalities can deliver essential services without relying on constant local tax referenda
• Lowering healthcare and child care costs that are straining working families
• Restoring reproductive freedom and protecting Wisconsinites’ personal healthcare decisions by enshrining their rights into law
• Protecting Wisconsin’s natural resources for future generations

“For too long, the Republican-led Legislature has ignored the needs of everyday Wisconsinites while playing political games,” Harrison said. “Meanwhile, communities across our district are being forced to ask voters to raise their own taxes just to pay for basic services. That’s not responsible governance—it’s passing the buck.”

District 5 has felt the direct consequences of this legislative neglect. Harrison’s campaign offers a fresh, pragmatic approach rooted in accountability and a deep commitment to the people she serves.

With decades of experience leading business operations and a strong record of civic engagement, Harrison knows how to bring people together to get things done. In her prior run for State Assembly, she built a grassroots coalition of energized supporters ready for values-driven leadership—and that momentum continues to grow.

“I’m not afraid to challenge the status quo,” Harrison added. “When you knock doors, talk to neighbors, and hear what families are going through—you realize that sitting on the sidelines is no longer an option.”

Sarah Harrison is running to be a strong, independent voice for Senate District 5—focused on people, not partisan insider politics.
