Mike Bare (D)
The Wisconsin we have today is a result of purposeful choices, and I will be part of making better choices happen. We don’t have to make it difficult to vote, or cause people to be uninsured or homeless.
Republicans in the Legislature have been attacking and undermining our democracy and the fabric of what holds us together as a state. I’m ready to fight for the right to vote, to end partisan gerrymandering, and to stop the purposeful spread of disinformation.

Republicans in the Legislature have been attacking and undermining our democracy and the fabric of what holds us together as a state.
Protect Our Basic Rights:
Public Education A strong public education in good schools with well-paid educators is the bedrock of our state. Mike's Mom was a public school teacher. Mike will be a champion for educators and students in the State Assembly and actively work to protect and improve our schools.
Healthcare Everyone has the right to affordable and high-quality healthcare, but not every Wisconsinite has access to it. This is especially true in the rural areas of the 80th District.
Women Women’s rights, especially the right to choose, get Mike's full and unconditional support.
Housing Far too many of our neighbors and school children struggle with housing insecurity and bouts of homelessness. Mike is an expert on housing policy and wants Wisconsin to transform how we guarantee everyone has access to affordable, quality, and stable shelter.
Broadband Every Wisconsinite has a right to access information and virtual tools that are vital to wellbeing, school, business, and social and family connection.
Environment
We must work to ensure our planet will be safe for the next generation and their kids too.
