Happy #LakeSuperiorDay to one of Wisconsin's two favorite Great Lakes, @LakeSuperior.

While it's not chocolate or flowers, I can promise you that we'll keep working to invest in our fresh coasts, conserve our natural waters, and protect our Great Lakes—including the #GLOAT!

[Governor Tony Evers @GovEvers]

In our state, nobody carries their worries alone, and with the new 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, help is only a phone call away.

If you or a loved one is experiencing a crisis, call 988 to get connected to a trained crisis counselor and to get the support you need.

[Senator Chris Larson @SenChrisLarson]

This Saturday, the new, free, nationwide #SuicidePrevention crisis line "988" goes live. If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts, call or text 24/7 for help!

[Representative Greta Neubauer @RepGreta]

Last month, Dr. Eliza Bennett, an OB-GYN and family planning provider, joined me, @SenBewley, and Democrats from across the state to outline the dangers of banning abortion in WI:

“This is an untenable situation for physicians and patients."

[Sen. Janet Bewley @SenBewley]

I am proud to have received a 100% on @WIConservation's Conservation Scorecard for this session. Protecting our planet is of the utmost importance, and I will continue fighting for clean air, water, and land in our great state.

[Governor Tony Evers @GovEvers]

Today’s #SCOWIS decision is another in a long line of Wisconsin Republicans’ successes to make it harder for Wisconsinites to exercise their right to vote, to undermine our free, fair, and secure elections, and to threaten our democracy. Read my full statement ⬇

Heartbreaking news out of Highland Park yesterday as people celebrated the 4th of July—yet another mass shooting taking several lives, injuring dozens, and affecting countless who are now forever changed by witnessing a horrific act of violence. Our country must do more.

[Sen. Janet Bewley @SenBewley]

Happy Independence Day! I hope everyone has a safe and fun Fourth of July.

[Representative Greta Neubauer @RepGreta]

Congratulations to the newest Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, Ketanji Brown Jackson!

[Governor Tony Evers @GovEvers]

BREAKING: @WisDOJ AG Kaul and I are filing a direct challenge to Wisconsin’s 1849 criminal abortion law banning nearly all abortions, even in cases of rape and incest.

We won’t go back, we won’t back down, and we are going to fight like hell.

[Lt. Governor Mandela Barnes @LGMandelaBarnes]

It is hard to put into words how defeated I am feeling today after hearing of the SCOTUS ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization. The precedent of the past 50 years that was established in Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey was thrown out in a single day.

[LaTonya Johnson @StateSenLaTonya]

It's a damn shame Wisconsin Republicans could have protected women during @GovEvers special session on Wednesday ahead of today's decision by #SCOTUS to overturn Roe but CHOSE not to.

[Governor Tony Evers @GovEvers]

Here’s my full statement on #SCOTUS decision to overturn #Roe.

[Sen. Janet Bewley @SenBewley]

A sad day, and a harbinger of what might be in store in the future. What is next? The right to marry? The right to contraceptives?

[Sen. Janet Bewley @SenBewley]

Today’s U.S. Supreme Court decision is heartbreaking, but unfortunately expected. The conservatives on the Supreme Court have overturned 50 years of precedent.

[Sen. Janet Bewley @SenBewley]

For years they complained about judicial activism, well now we know it was nothing but a smokescreen to get to their desired results, results that are opposed by the overwhelming majority of this nation’s citizens.

[Sen. Janet Bewley @SenBewley]

Happy Birthday to my friend and colleague, @StateSenLaTonya! We are so grateful to have you in our caucus. I hope you have a fantastic day celebrating!

[Governor Tony Evers @GovEvers]

Republicans today defied the people of this state and rejected my special session to repeal Wisconsin’s criminal abortion ban and ensure reproductive rights in Wisconsin are protected if #SCOTUS overturns #Roe. Read my full statement ⬇️

[Sen. Janet Bewley @SenBewley]

@GovEvers and Legislative Democrats will continue to fight to protect access to abortion and ensure safe and available health care for all citizens. Reproductive care is health care.

[Sen. Janet Bewley @SenBewley]

No matter how the question has been framed, a majority of Wisconsin citizens consistently say they want abortion to be safe, legal, and accessible. By gaveling out today’s special session without debate, Republicans ignore the will of up to two-thirds of Wisconsinites.

[Sen. Janet Bewley @SenBewley]

By refusing to repeal the draconian criminal abortion law, Legislative Republicans make it clear they have no desire to listen to their constituents. They like to wrap themselves in the flag of democracy, but all Republicans do is cater to their far-right-wing base.
