State Journal Says Fitzgerald “Willing to Let Wisconsinites Die”

Brookfield, WI – In a time when America needs leadership and a coordinated national plan to fight the worst pandemic in 100 years, Scott Fitzgerald expects to go to Washington for no other reason than he’s a Republican.  His Democratic challenger, Tom Palzewicz, doesn’t care about party when public health is in peril.  He is looking for results.

In an October 28th editorial in the Wisconsin State Journal, John Hart outlined several compelling reasons why Palzewicz is the better choice for Wisconsin and why Fitzgerald is a failure as a legislative leader.  He began with a simple, declarative statement, “Wisconsinites who are looking for an place to begin addressing everything that is wrong with politics in this state and nation can begin be rejecting the congressional candidacy of career politician Scott Fitzgerald.”

Fitzgerald has been leading the charge against Governor Tony Evers throughout this public health crisis. Hart points out, “Fitzgerald has not just refused to cooperate with efforts by Evers to tackle the pandemic. He has gone to court to block those efforts. He has refused to call the Legislature into session so that more responsible Republicans can work with Democrats. As the crisis has accelerated in recent weeks, with record numbers of deaths being reported each day, he has mocked Evers for taking it seriously.”

Fitzgerald is still bitter over the defeat of former governor Scott Walker and continued, “The majority leader is mad that there is a Democrat in the governor’s office. So mad that he is willing to let Wisconsinites get sick and die rather than work with a Democrat in support of proven science and public health strategies that will save lives.”

Palzewicz has promised to work with Republicans and Independents in Washington to formulate a strategic national response, something that has been completely missing under Republican rule. Hart ended by saying the upside to this election is that voters can cast their ballots for Tom Palzewicz.
