Sen. Marklein Announces Misguided Reelection Bid in Wisconsin’s 17th Senate District
MADISON, WI – This morning, Senator Howard Marklein (R-Spring Green) announced he would be seeking reelection to the Wisconsin State Senate in the 17th district. The announcement comes on the heels of Wisconsin’s Supreme Court election where his chosen candidate lost every county in the district, and after 4 high-profile Republicans have chosen to retire rather than lose in November.
SSDC Communications Director Will Karcz on Sen. Marklein’s announcement:
“Senator Marklein talks about investments in our schools, investments in hospitals, in our healthcare system — ignoring the fact that while he’s been in office, schools in his district have closed their doors, hospitals in his district have closed their doors, and healthcare costs have skyrocketed. Sen. Marklein sat back and did nothing as veterans’ housing facilities in Eau Claire and Green Bay closed their doors. When he could have acted. The people of Wisconsin’s 17th Senate district deserve better than the failed leadership Howard has brought to Madison. This November, they will reject the failures of Howard Markelin and elect Jenna Jacobson as the new State Senator in Southwestern Wisconsin.”
