(Racine, WI)- Lorenzo Santos of Racine is running for Congress to represent the 1st Congressional District of Wisconsin, which covers Racine, Kenosha, most of Walworth, and portions of Rock and Milwaukee county.
Lorenzo, a resident of downtown Racine, is a 2013 graduate of the United States Naval Academy, serves as an emergency manager for Racine County, an intelligence officer in the Navy Reserve and is the Chair of the Young Democrats of Wisconsin.
“I’m running because we’ve seen fundamental civil and human rights systematically taken away these past few years and I’m not going to stand by and let that continue to happen”, Santos said. “I believe in a woman’s right to choose, that in the richest country on earth, anyone that wants healthcare should have it, that voters should choose their elected officials, not the other way around, that we should pay workers a fair wage, provide our children with a quality education and keep them safe while they’re getting one. I look forward to talking about these issues and more as I get to meet the people of the 1st District of Wisconsin”.
Santos’ campaign will focus on reproductive rights, healthcare, voting rights, worker’s rights, jobs, manufacturing, education, gun control, public safety and climate change.
Santos will make his official announcement at a meet and greet Saturday, August 19th 4 PM – 6 PM at Littleport Brewing Company, 214 Third Street, Racine, WI 53403.
