The Madison, Wisconsin chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America. 🌹🇵🇸
I don’t know if Francesca Hong can win a statewide election. But what I do know is her campaign has earned the right to be taken seriously, and — perhaps more importantly — to be considered on its merits, and not simply by the labels or narratives assigned to it.
Aside from a little drizzle on Sunday, it looks like this weekend will be beautiful for meeting new people, hearing from our neighbors, and fighting fascism together! Join us! linktr.ee/julianaforthep…
NEW on CNN: Francesca Hong, a top Democratic running for Wisconsin governor, repeatedly called for abolishing police in past comments. Unlike others, Hong did not disavow those comments when asked but now says, "I recognize that this paradigm shift is a very long term vision."
CNN: Francesca Hong, a leading Democrat in the Wisconsin governor’s race, called for abolishing the police. Hong, a 37-year-old state representative and democratic socialist, wrote on Twitter in 2020 she supported “defunding the police as a first step towards abolishing the police.” She later argued in 2021 that “police exist to uphold white supremacy. Defund then abolish. Reform can’t be an option.” cnn.com/2026/05/22/pol…
In Wisconsin, the birthplace of “sewer socialism,” socialists are again building their forces and making a bid for the governor’s seat. @JuForthePeople, running in Madison’s 76th District, hopes to join the growing socialist caucus in the state house. jacobin.com/2026/05/bennet…
There is a new Democratic Socialist in Congress. DSA congratulates our member Chris Rabb on his election for Pennsylvania’s 3rd Congressional District. This victory would not have been possible without the work of thousands of working class people across Philadelphia organizing for a better world. We will be with Congressman Rabb every step of the way in the fight to abolish ICE, free Palestine and win Medicare for All.
