BROOKFIELD—Sara Rodriguez, candidate for Lieutenant Governor of Wisconsin in 2022, announced today that she has earned the endorsements of multiple Democratic Party leaders and local elected officials.
“Sara Rodriguez is the kind of leader Wisconsin needs,” said Khary Penebaker, a Democratic Party leader from Hartland. “As a fellow resident of Waukesha County, I know she can reach people of every political persuasion. She listens, she cares, and she’s ready to lead. Her experience in public health is what we need to recover from the COVID pandemic and address the gun violence epidemic.”
“Governor Evers needs a partner in Madison with Sara’s background in business, public health, and government,” said Milwaukee Alderwoman JoCasta Zamarripa. “Sara’s passion for public service is evident in all that she does and I know she’ll work hand in hand with Governor Evers to move our state forward from day one.”
“Sara Rodriguez has demonstrated her dedication to fighting for the needs of her constituents and hard-working Wisconsinites across the state,” said Beloit Common Council President Clinton Anderson. “Sara’s been a champion of public education, safeguarding our democracy, and expanding affordable healthcare access for all, and she’ll continue to advance our shared values as Lieutenant Governor.”
“The momentum behind our campaign continues to grow every single day and I’m truly honored by the trust these community leaders have placed in me with their endorsements,” said Rodriguez. “I’m running for Lieutenant Governor because I know I can do more to serve the people of our great state as a partner to Tony Evers. I’m humbled by the incredible support we’ve earned so far and I promise to keep working hard on the campaign trail to earn the vote of every Wisconsinite.”
