“So many of our current leaders seek office for money and power, quickly abandoning the policies they promised and the people they swore to serve. Citizens deserve transparency, accessibility, integrity, and strength from their representative; a voice which will stand up and fight for the issues affecting people while defending the rights and freedoms we all hold dear. I promise to fight with everything I’ve got for all Wisconsinites and all Americans.”
Thank you so incredibly much!
We have come so very far!
Are you ready for the next battle?
Friends, confidants, volunteers, voters, and Team Kat Family -
I am humbled and blessed to have been surrounded by so many of you who have believed in me and believed in us. This campaign has never been about me. It’s been about all of us, together. Working hand in hand and in solidarity, we find a strength we never knew we had and one we could never find alone. At a time when this country seems so perilous; our federal government acting with clear animus and hatred toward the people. Toward all of us. A majority of Americans living paycheck to paycheck, unable to weather an emergency expense. Hate and chaos run rampant in the streets; division stoked like a 5 alarm fire by Trump and his sycophantic goons. Culture war cruelty and racial bigotry at an all time high, transphobia and misogyny ruling the state and federal legislatures, all while the ICE Gestapo runs amok and the inept executive sleeps on television from the White House. It’s hard to imagine this country could ever be more screwed up. It’s also obvious those in power do all of this on purpose. Despite all of this mess, and despite all of this danger, you showed up. You turned out. You came to the fight. And we came so incredibly close to winning!
No one on the outside ever thought we’d get 5% of the vote, let alone 32%! The truth is, we came within 2500 votes of winning this whole thing, and that is nothing short of incredible! It’s also told me that what we’re doing here is very important. In the short span of 8 months, we’ve created a powerhouse to rally and fight back against this authoritarian regime, and I’m staying in it to fight with you!
That is why I have pivoted my effort and filed new paperwork. I have offered my support to the primary winners, and have shifted the gears here to set us in motion for the next fight.
As of August 13th 2026, I have declared my candidacy for United States Senate. We’ve begun the road to removing Rojo, and I hope you decide to come join this fight!
We go forward in power for the great state of Wisconsin and for the entirety of the United States. Indivisible, with Liberty and Justice FOR ALL!
If you would like to get involved, please reach out! We can be contacted on the Join Team Kat page. I’d love to have you on our team!
My Promise
The fleecing of the American people has gone on for as long as I have been alive. Politicians have made promises of making things better, only to continue using their powers of office to self enrich and maintain their seat at the table of government, but not really doing a whole lot to improve the lives of their constituents in a profound positive way. Recently, we’ve seen our government leaders intentionally avoiding the people they represent; office doors locked, no town halls, and refusing to answer questions. This does nothing to instill the faith in our leaders to do the right things; to work toward policies intended to help the majority of who they represent, instead of only the few who make large campaign contributions. The American people deserve far better. The people of Wisconsin deserve far better.
I promise to deliver on this by clearly stating my positions on issues you’re concerned about. I’ll maintain integrity with the policies and positions I’ve stated, continuing to be transparent, understandable, and accessible for as long as I serve you. And perhaps most importantly, I’ll be working for you and remaining true to you, the voters who trust me to be your voice, your Senator.
I’m not a politician; I’ve never served in government before. I’m a worker like you - a small business owner like you. I’ve been on food assistance and government assisted healthcare before. I’ve scraped and struggled just to squeak by, so I understand how the policies of our government affect each of our lives. As food benefits and access to healthcare become threatened, these issues are literally life and death for so many of us. Our leaders have forgotten what it means to be working class and live paycheck to paycheck. They’ve forgotten what it’s like to choose between paying rent and putting food on the table, while using public benefit programs and the people who depend on them as pawns to gain political leverage. This isn’t a game and your life isn’t a chess piece. Our lives are real; our concerns and struggles are real. We deserve a Senator who understands how real these struggles are.
I promise to fight for you and all of us with my life, because it’s our lives on the line here. You have my word.
I Work For You
Elected officials are supposed to work for the people, not the other way around. Everyday Americans have been forgotten by our politicians as they continue to prioritize corporations over citizens and profits over people. Government leaders are supposed to be public servants. This means I Work For You.
I promise to always give 100% of my energy toward making sure your life is better.
You come first and our government works FOR YOU.
Policies
HUMAN RIGHTS
As an openly public facing transgender woman in the year 2026, it has been made crystal clear our human rights are still very vulnerable to those who wish to oppress and discriminate from positions of government or corporate power. I would have never imagined such hate and malicious prejudice to still exist in our country, but I have now seen it with my own eyes and have felt it break my own heart. Evil will not stop until it has destroyed lives. I promise to fight with my life for you and ALL Americans so our basic human rights are guaranteed inalienable, never able to be threatened or stripped away again.
UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE AND A SINGLE PAYER SYSTEM
America’s healthcare system is broken. The cost of medical treatment continues to skyrocket, almost entirely due to the corporate greed of for-profit health insurance companies putting profit over people. Your care shouldn’t be sacrificed for the sake of shareholder dividends, yet this is exactly what happens in our current system. I will tirelessly work to remove health insurance companies from the equation, making Medicare FOR ALL and a single payer healthcare system the reality, so no citizen’s medical care is left behind.
RAISING THE FEDERAL MINIMUM WAGE
We are currently in the longest period of stagnation for the federal minimum wage since the program was started in 1938. Families are living paycheck to paycheck, unable to get ahead or in many cases, to even survive without government assistance. All of this is the result of corporations not paying workers a living wage. I will work to raise our minimum wage to at least $22 an hour, while also enacting legislation which mandates regular minimum wage increases based directly on the rising costs of living.
AFFORDABLE HOUSING
There is a housing shortage epidemic happening in our country right now. This isn’t something we’re far removed from; the largest cities in our district and state are distinct examples of this reality. I will work with our city leaders to ensure the current successful programs continue getting the funding they need, while fighting for the resources needed to do so much more. Providing affordable homes to more people directly contributes to a stronger middle class, which results in economy growth and the growing strength of America.
PUBLIC WORKS ADMINISTRATION V2.0
The Public Works Administration was an integral part of FDR’s New Deal. This was the government agency created during the Great Depression which not only built so much of the infrastructure (roads, bridges, damns, etc.) we still continue to use, but it provided thousands of jobs for Americans. Infrastructure projects have become privatized over the last few decades, while much of that infrastructure crumbles and begins to fail. I will work to move public works programs back into the realm of government agency through the reintroduction of the Public Works Administration, thereby creating thousands more jobs, lowering costs, and addressing the immediate issue of our decaying infrastructure system. It would also be this agency’s job to build and maintain more affordable housing alongside and/or with current local government projects.
LOWERING THE COST OF LIVING
There are a great number of factors contributing to the high cost of living in our country, and there are equal number of instances in which our current lawmakers have failed to address the issue. Lowering the cost of prescription drugs, providing free tuition to schools of higher learning, and raising the tax rate for the super wealthy while simultaneously giving extensive tax cuts to middle class Americans are actions which will provide immediate relief to our nation’s families and are goals I’ll tirelessly work toward achieving.
TAX MEGA - CHURCHES
I’ll work to remove the tax exempt status of mega - churches. A majority of mega - churches run as profit based corporations, hiding behind the guise of religion to exploit tax exemption. Taxing them eliminates this scenario, treating them correctly under the same tax codes as any other corporation. This will achieve quite a few things, not the least of these being requirement as contributors to our society. I will earmark this tax income to fund another of my proposals - one which could immeasurably help our country’s families: Universal Child Care.
UNIVERSAL CHILDCARE
As this program name implies, I propose a plan to provide free child care for all families with children between the ages of 12 months and 5 years of age; 12 months being an acceptable age to safely care for a child outside their home and 5 years old being when children begin school. This program is to be specifically funded by taxes collected from churches and religious groups. The positive effects this program alone could have on our workforce, our economy, and our nation as a whole are immeasurable, while also creating a real world scenario for children of all ethnicities and backgrounds to be growing up in diverse circumstances and acclimated to one another. Through proper pre-school teaching techniques, this could very much be a long term solution to solving racism, bigotry, and the social isolation epidemic currently plaguing our country.
CAMPAIGN FINANCE REFORM
Big business and the oligarchs of this nation have been allowed to buy our government officials and the decisions they make by use of lobbying for favor, exploitation of judicial ruling which uncaps contributions donors can make to them (such as under Citizens United), and so on. Millions of dollars go to politicians every day, creating bias in their actions and have managed to lobby the middle class and every day American’s concerns out of relevance. I will fight to end these practices so the public servants holding office remain true to who they’ve supposed to have been this entire time. The American citizens.
RESTORING GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY
Our government institutions have been weaponized against us by a lawless President. Filled with radical loyalists, DHS, FCC, HHS, CDC, etc. have all conceded power to a malicious authoritarian, while performing acts of violence and following policies meant to harm American citizens. Trump was given limited criminal immunity by the Supreme Court and this has been the main factor which has allowed all of this to happen. I will propose new legislation to put accountability back on the President, along with working tirelessly to end government domestic terrorism and hold all those responsible for it liable.
GOVERNMENT TRANSPARENCY
Over the last few decades, we’ve watched our government officials pay less attention to us, push through unpopular or even oppressive legislation in the middle of the night, hide what they’re doing by overcomplicating explanations, and make themselves less and less available to even ask questions or voice concerns. This has really come to a high point during this current administration, with our representative actively avoiding constituents and refusing to have town halls to address wide spread public concern over the federal government’s actions and policies. I make a promise to you to always be accessible and available to ask questions, hear criticisms of my policies, and to listen to suggestions and concerns. It is you who has entrusted me to be your voice, an honor I will continue to cherish by showing up for meetings, town halls, and in the community. I’m an every-day American, just like you, and I solemnly swear to always stay that way.
BODY AUTONOMY
Over the past few decades, we’ve seen the government creep into what should be our safest place: the doctor’s examination room. Again and again, the encroachments have come from the hands of Republican lawmakers under the guise of protecting lives or protecting children. These narratives are quickly proven false by observing the actions of those who attack our most personal of freedoms. They have attacked abortion rights by claiming to be acting in the interests of saving children, yet completely drop any concern for that child the minute after the mother gives birth. They also claim a similar story with trans people. Gender affirming care has been blocked for youth in states across the US, under the rhetoric of saving children, yet they forget all about those children after the healthcare has been stripped away. It’s never been about saving children and it’s always been about controlling women. Every citizen should have the human right to be able to determine what happens to their own body, completely free and removed from any government interference. Doctors and patients should be making the best choice decisions for themselves, based on facts and years of best practice caregiving experience. You wouldn’t ask your congress person to perform surgery on you, so why are we letting them determine the care we need? Body Autonomy is a human right, and I’ll see to it this gets the proper energy needed to become law.
