Mark Pocan

MoveOn is Proud to Endorse Mark Pocan for Congress!

Meet Mark Pocan

Mark Pocan has established a reputation as an effective progressive leader, bringing his 14 years of experience in the Wisconsin State Assembly to Congress in 2013. Mark’s political journey began in blue-collar Kenosha, Wisconsin, where he delivered campaign literature door-to-door for his father, a long-time city alderman, at just eight years old. This early exposure to politics sparked his passion for public service.

Mark attended college in Madison and, after earning his journalism degree in 1986, opened his own small business, a union printing company he continues to run today. His active involvement with College Democrats at the University of Wisconsin-Madison led to his election to the Dane County Board of Supervisors in 1991, where he served for three terms. In 1998, he was elected to succeed his close friend Tammy Baldwin as the State Representative from the 78th District, and later, he succeeded her once again when she was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2012.

Advocate for Progressive Causes

As a small business owner, union member, and lifelong advocate for progressive causes, Mark brings his unique blend of private and public sector experience to Congress. He serves as the Co-Chair of the LGBT Equality Caucus and is a co-founder of the Labor Caucus. He is also the Chair Emeritus of the Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC). During his five terms in Congress, Mark has fought for access to public education, investment in clean energy, raising the minimum wage, and closing tax loopholes used by large corporations.

Mark is deeply committed to ensuring Wisconsin’s families have an economy that works for them. He supports strengthening social safety net programs, including Medicare, Social Security, and healthcare for vulnerable populations. He believes in upholding worker rights and ensuring that senior citizens can retire with dignity and security.

A Legislator Who Fights Fairly

Mark Pocan is known for his ability to bridge political divides while remaining steadfast in his progressive values. His leadership earned him the Congressional Progressive Caucus Newcomer of the Year Award in 2014. Mark and his husband, Phil, who married in Canada in 2006, reside in the Town of Vermont, Wisconsin.

Tammy Baldwin

MoveOn is Proud to Endorse Tammy Baldwin for Reelection to the U.S. Senate in Wisconsin!

Meet Tammy Baldwin

Tammy Baldwin was born in Madison, Wisconsin, and raised by her grandparents after her mother struggled with mental illness and addiction. Her grandfather was a biochemist at the University of Wisconsin, and her Nana was a talented seamstress and head costume designer in the UW Theater Department. At nine, Tammy faced a serious illness, spending three months in the hospital. The insurance companies’ refusal to cover her due to a “pre-existing condition” profoundly impacted her future work in healthcare reform.

Public Service and Legislative Achievements

Tammy attended public schools, graduated from Madison West High School, and went on to Smith College to study government and mathematics. After college, she worked on pay equity issues before attending the University of Wisconsin Law School. During law school, Tammy was elected to the Dane County Board of Supervisors, where she played a key role in chairing the Dane County Task Force on AIDS.

In 1998, Tammy made history by becoming Wisconsin’s first female member of Congress and the first openly gay non-incumbent elected to Congress. In the House, she fought for healthcare reforms that allowed young adults to stay on their parents’ insurance until age 26 and protected people with pre-existing conditions. Tammy also worked across party lines, passing legislation to support blinded veterans and expand access to cancer screenings for women.

Senate Career and Current Bid for Congress

In 2012, Tammy Baldwin continued to break barriers by becoming Wisconsin’s first female Senator and the first openly LGBTQ+ Senator in history. As a Senator, she has championed “Buy American” rules, fought against unfair trade deals, and protected healthcare for millions of Americans. Her efforts include passing the Respect for Marriage Act, ensuring protections for same-sex and interracial marriages.

Now, Tammy is running for re-election to continue her fight for Wisconsin families. Despite being targeted by corporate interests and mega-donors, Tammy remains committed to holding powerful entities accountable and ensuring that Washington works for Wisconsin—not special interests. She stands as a tireless advocate for the people, determined to keep fighting for a better future.
