Peter Burgelis for Wisconsin

Candidate for Southeastern Wisconsin's 1st Congressional District, Common Council Alderman and former County Supervisor

[Peter Burgelis for Wisconsin @peterforwi]

Across Southeast Wisconsin, I hear the same thing: costs are rising, paychecks aren't keeping up, and working families are being squeezed. I've spent years fighting to help my constituents, and I will fight for you. Learn more: https://t.co/cJOUpRvWpf

Wisconsin's nursing shortage is expected to grow over the next 15 years.

Capping these student loans hurts all of us in the long run.

Thank you, Attorney General Kaul for standing up for Wisconsin.

Congressman Bryan Steil is touting lead pipe replacement projects funded by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law after voting against the legislation and later supporting efforts to claw back funding for similar projects.

My full statement is below:

@DanRShafer That’s why I’m running to replace him. The people in WI-01 are done with him putting billionaires over his constituents.

Bryan Steil thinks going after ActBlue will help the average American. It won’t. Ask yourself why - here’s the truth about @actblue https://t.co/248oMvc2ta

[Sen. Tammy Baldwin @SenatorBaldwin]

The President’s trade war and war with Iran have created even more headwinds for Wisconsin farmers. These reckless wars need to end now. https://t.co/4lEtPNJkdF

[Peter Burgelis for Wisconsin @peterforwi]

@EliRosen18 Well said! That’s why I’m running to defeat him.

[Dan Shafer @DanRShafer]

This funding is coming from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law that Bryan Steil (and every Republican member of Congress from Wisconsin) voted against.

[Wisconsin Senate Democrats @WISenateDems]

This Memorial Day weekend, every family hitting the road will feel the reckless decisions that are driving up costs.

While Republicans in DC waste our tax dollars, and their allies here in Wisconsin do nothing, Senate Democrats have a plan to drive down costs.

[Peter Burgelis for Wisconsin @peterforwi]

@EBrooksUncut Everyone was excited to get rid of Bryan Steil! It was a great day.

[Peter Burgelis for Wisconsin @peterforwi]

Spent the day connecting with residents across Wisconsin’s First Congressional District—listening, learning, and building real momentum. Thank you to everyone who helped gather signatures and support our campaign.

[Peter Burgelis for Wisconsin @peterforwi]

@MilFireDept @alipski1 Well deserved!

[Peter Burgelis for Wisconsin @peterforwi]

Thank you for having me! This seat is flippable and belongs to someone who will represent the people.

A disgusting day when the government wants to support insurrectionists. The corruption in Washington must end. https://t.co/Na6qLH4EmN

@ZenKat12 Can you cite your sources of this fraud?

[Peter Burgelis for Wisconsin @peterforwi]

Just a reminder that Bryan Steil voted for the Republican Budget Bill that cut Medicaid and food assistance for working Wisconsin families so that Trump could give bigger tax breaks to people like Dick and Liz Uihlein. Who by the way, will not use that extra savings to raise wages, but to donate more to extreme right-wing politicians.

[Peter Burgelis for Wisconsin @peterforwi]

@WisDems Now do Bryan Steil.

[Peter Burgelis for Wisconsin @peterforwi]

Bryan Steil supports this illegal war in Iran. Your costs are going up as a direct result of this unsanctioned attack. Wisconsin deserves better.

[Peter Burgelis for Wisconsin @peterforwi]

Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers and working parents balancing so much every day. I’m committed to fighting for policies that support families: codifying reproductive freedom, guaranteeing paid family leave, expanding affordable childcare, and ensuring equal pay. Families deserve dignity, opportunity, and real support. 💐

[Peter Burgelis for Wisconsin @peterforwi]

I’m running an aggressive campaign which includes a 21 stop in 4 days listening session.
Why I’m running: I’m running because southeast Wisconsin deserves someone who will listen and fight for working families.
People are struggling with rising healthcare and housing costs while Donald Trump’s tariffs drive prices even higher. And Bryan Steil isn’t listening — he stopped showing up when people demanded answers. It’s time for new leadership.
