Pro-Equality Gains in State Legislature

Despite the amendment loss, there were many pro-equality gains in the legislature.  Nearly all of HRL-PAC's endorsed candidates won office.  In the State Senate, the Republican leadership's focus on conservative, anti-LGBT policies have led to the dramatic loss of their majority.  HRL-PAC is particularly proud to have played a strong role in the strategic wins of Senate candidates Jim Sullivan and John Lehman.

In addition, the re-election of Governor Jim Doyle and Lt. Governor Barbara Lawton are critical successes for Wisconsin's equality movement.
