🚨First Endorsement of 2025🚨

February 26, 2025

Jewish Dems are mobilizing in 2025 – and we’re ready to take back our country.

We just announced our first endorsement of the year: Judge Susan Crawford for the Wisconsin Supreme Court. We’re asking you to get involved today.

MAKE CALLS FOR SUSAN CRAWFORD

The Wisconsin Supreme Court election is 34 days away, on April 1, 2025. It’s the first statewide election this year, and it comes at a crucial moment for the future of our democracy: Whoever wins this seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court will decide the court’s majority.

We’re endorsing Judge Susan Crawford because she shares our values, and we know that a liberal majority on the Wisconsin Supreme Court makes a difference in defending democracy and securing economic opportunities for all Americans.

In the two years since we helped secure Wisconsin Justice Janet Protasiewicz’s victory in 2023, the Wisconsin Supreme Court – with a one-seat liberal majority – has restored voting rights, secured fair legislative maps for the first time in over a decade, protected abortion rights, and is on the verge of restoring rights for unions and teachers.

If Judge Crawford wins this race, the court will provide a critical check on Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s extreme agenda in a key swing state.

Reminder: In November, Wisconsin Senator Tammy Baldwin secured reelection by fewer than 30,000 votes in a state that Kamala Harris lost by the narrowest margin of any swing state. We know that this race will be close, but Judge Crawford can and will win if voters turn out. And if she wins, it will be the first electoral check on Donald Trump, just months into his administration.

Elon Musk knows this, which is why he’s pouring money into this election in support of Judge Crawford’s opponent. We need to show Elon Musk that no matter how much money he throws at this race, the people, not the billionaire class, will decide the outcome of this election.

That’s why we’re asking YOU to get involved. No matter where you live, you can make a difference. Over the next month, we’re mobilizing in Wisconsin to deliver victory for Judge Crawford. Join us every Monday at 5:30 p.m. CT with Grassroots Democrats HQ to make calls across Wisconsin and get out the vote.

In solidarity,

Halie Soifer,

CEO, Jewish Democratic Council of America
