Since March 2024, Van Orden failed to show up for at least 10 of 22 separate Agriculture Committee and subcommittee hearings... Congressional records show that, in several instances, Van Orden was in D.C. — he just didn’t attend them

Trump approval in rural America slips to new low:

Only 50% of respondents from rural areas approved of Trump. In Feb 25, 60% approved of the president.

Trump’s disapproval rating among rural Americans rose from 34% in Feb 25 to 48% now.

It's Whine Wednesday time!

This week has been a series of lowlights for Van Orden. From celebrating Trump’s disastrous farmer-bankrupting agenda to ranting about LA elections, there's a lot to read this week.

DVO is proud to vote to build coal plants across the US, including in Wisconsin, that will pump millions of tons of pollution into our air and water supplies.

From Politico: Van Orden has... to defend White House policies that have been blamed for farm labor shortages, trade disruptions and soaring production costs as he campaigns for a third term in a district he has narrowly won twice.

From Bill Kaplan: GOP bigwigs can’t save Van Orden

"Trump and other GOP bigwigs can’t save Van Orden... Voters, including rural Wisconsinites, are moving away from Trump and the GOP."

[3rd CD WisDems @3rdDemsWI]

@derrickvanorden Hello, this is William Garcia, chair of the 3rd CD Dems of Wisconsin. I would like to speak to your team about planning for election debates in Wisconsin's 3rd CD? Is there a member of your campaign staff you could send my way? Thank you.

[3rd CD WisDems @3rdDemsWI]

"It saddens me how low our politics has gotten, when a sitting Republican member of Congress feels the need to engage in juvenile, disrespectful campaign stunts intended to harass and intimidate voters."

"Cooke plans to protect agriculture and WI farmers by addressing breakdowns in the supply chain, creating tax incentives for small-midsize farms, enforcing antitrust laws, incentivize the formation of rural cooperatives, and restructuring the Farm Bill"

"Van Orden can’t control himself emotionally and is guilty of outbursts at young people in Wisconsin and at the Capitol. .. he “cursed out (teenage) Senate pages” (Washington Post). Was he drunk? Why has he never apologized for his misbehavior?"
