MADISON, WI – In light of Senator Tomczyk’s horrific, bullying comments made towards a child coupled with him attempting to stifle reporting on the incident, leading to their potential closure, the Wisconsin State Senate Democratic Committee (SSDC) is calling on Senator Cory Tomczyk to resign.
“Senator Tomczyk’s behavior is disqualifying and completely unbecoming of a legislator,” said Andrew Whitley, Executive Director of the SSDC. “A time when public discourse is at an all-time low, Wisconsinites should look towards their representatives as a model for how to conduct themselves. Senator Tomczyk’s ‘model’ is to attack a 13 year-old boy, calling him a horrific homophobic slur, and when called out on it he sued the outlet that reported on it to the point where they might have to close their doors. Anybody with an ounce of self-respect, regard for the constituents that they represent, and the office they hold would resign. But given how Senator Tomczyk has conducted himself, we’re not holding our breath.”
