MILWAUKEE – Today, former State Senator and Milwaukee County Child Support Services Director Jim Sullivan announces his endorsement of State Rep. David Crowley to be the next Milwaukee County Executive.

I’m happy to support David Crowley to be the next County Executive.”
“The work Jim has been able to do over the last decade with Milwaukee County Child Support Services has been remarkable. We need more leaders like him at the county level to make sure that we are providing the best possible services to Milwaukee County residents,” said Rep.
