MADISON — Today Lt. Governor Mandela Barnes announced that he will participate in two televised debates, the Wisconsin Broadcast Association’s debate and the TMJ4 debate hosted in conjunction with Wispolitics.com, 620 WTMJ, and Milwaukee Business Journal. In addition, Barnes continues to challenge Senator Johnson to participate in a forum hosted by the Wisconsin Farmers Union and Main Street Alliance.
Mandela Barnes for Wisconsin campaign manager Kory Kozloski made the following statement:
“While Ron Johnson still refuses to take questions from farmers and small business owners in his own backyard that have been harmed by his out of touch agenda, Mandela Barnes looks forward to showing up on the debate stage to hold Ron Johnson accountable for his dangerous views on abortion, record of enriching himself at the expense of working people, and attacks on Social Security and Medicare.”
