"Representative Sylvia Ortiz-Velez has been a champion for her community. In the State Assembly, she has worked tirelessly to improve community safety, public health, and deliver for her constituents. She has been an important partner and I'm proud to support her re-election."
~Governor Tony Evers
Dear Neighbor,
It has been an honor and a privilege to serve you as the Representative of the 8th Assembly District. Over the course of this session, I’ve served on 5 committees, was the lead author on 20 legislative proposals, co-authored 285, co-sponsored 267, and cast countless votes. I'm proud to say that 56 bills I either authored or co-authored were signed into law by Governor Evers.
Despite the challenging political climate, I consistently fought to block legislative proposals that would be harmful to Wisconsinites and, when possible, reached across the aisle to work with the majority party, prioritizing legislation that:
-
Expands affordable healthcare to all Wisconsinites
-
Provides quality education to every child
-
Preserves our environment and natural resources
-
Supports workers and small businesses
-
Ensures good government and protects voting rights
I’ve worked hard to build a Wisconsin that invests in our future and creates resilient communities. Nonetheless, there is still much work to do. That’s why I’m running for re-election and hope to continue to have your support. Vote Sylvia for Wisconsin Assembly in the 2024 Fall Elections!
Forward Together!
