MILWAUKEE – Today, the Professional Fire Fighters of Wisconsin endorsed David Crowley for Governor, backing his vision to build a stronger, more affordable Wisconsin and recognizing his record of delivering results for working families and local communities.
The endorsement adds the support of thousands of professional firefighters, paramedics, and emergency medical personnel across Wisconsin to Crowley’s growing statewide coalition.
“Firefighters and paramedics put service above self every single day,” said David Crowley. “They run toward danger when others are running away, and they keep our communities safe during some of life’s most difficult moments. I am honored to have the support of the Professional Fire Fighters of Wisconsin and grateful for the trust they have placed in our campaign.”
As Milwaukee County Executive, Crowley has worked alongside first responders to strengthen public safety across Milwaukee County’s 19 cities, towns, and villages, improve public services, and ensure local governments have the resources they need to meet the needs of residents. Crowley was instrumental in helping secure the bipartisan shared revenue agreement that delivered hundreds of millions of dollars in additional state aid to municipalities statewide, providing communities with the resources needed to support public safety and essential local services. As governor, Crowley will continue fighting for investments that keep Wisconsin communities safe, support working families, and grow the state’s economy.
“David Crowley has a proven record of delivering results for Wisconsin communities and the first responders who serve them. He understands that strong public safety starts with making sure firefighters, paramedics, and emergency medical personnel have the staffing, equipment, training, and resources necessary to do their jobs safely and effectively,” said Professional Fire Fighters of Wisconsin President Jerry Biggart. “From helping secure additional state resources for local governments to consistently standing up for working families and public servants, David has shown the kind of leadership Wisconsin needs. We are proud to endorse him for Governor.”
Crowley’s pragmatic approach and proven track record resonate in urban, suburban, and rural communities across Wisconsin. And as a County Executive who was re-elected in Milwaukee County with 84% of the vote, he is uniquely positioned to increase turnout in the city of Milwaukee while also driving up Democratic margins in crucial suburbs. Crowley’s statewide appeal is the exact formula that will elect a Democratic governor in November.
The Democratic primary for governor will be held on August 11, 2026. More information about David Crowley and his campaign can be found at CrowleyforWI.com.
