Your 8th Congressional District Representative Tony Wied has had a busy week in Washington, DC.
Since Monday, he has voted to:
- Keep the US in the Iran war, with no plan or end in sight
- Stop insider trading... but not really!! Bill H.R. 7008 has no real power to prevent insider trading, but instead snuck in a completely unrelated voter ID requirement at the end - part of their SAVE Act voter suppression efforts
- Deregulate banks, reducing oversight of our financial institutions and inviting risk (H.R. 6955)
- and the big budget buster... Tony voted to give more than $1.15 TRILLION to the DoD for a wide range of 2027 projects including a remarkably deep integration with Israel military forces, nuclear energy and security expansions, new equipment, and "construction projects" (H.R. 8800)
Tony seems to think that NE WI citizens want to pay for war and wall street, while giving up their own access to affordable healthcare, groceries, gas, and basic human needs.
The good news is that we can vote to replace him in November β Come meet the Democrats running for this seat at our August 3 Primary Candidate Forum: https://www.mobilize.us/mobilize/event/992625/
