“I’m thrilled to congratulate Devin Remiker on his election as the next chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin. In Devin, the delegates to our state convention have chosen a leader, an innovator, a brilliant strategist, and a Democratic who understands to his core that we are strongest as a party when we join together, from every corner of the state, to fight for a future that lifts up working families.

“I also want to congratulate our newly-elected officers, First Vice Chair Sarah Godlewski and Second Vice-Chair Joshua Taylor, and returning officers Secretary Kim Butler and Treasurer Randy Udell. Their leadership, in partnership with Chair Remiker, will be instrumental in advancing the mission of our state party.

Devin will do them proud. I’ll be there to support him, and our party, every step of the way.”
