My friend, career physician Dr. Chris Koeppl, lays out the damage created by a Congress that chose to reward billionaires with tax cuts instead of helping our own people. We're at a tipping point in rural healthcare. Major cuts to medicaid have led to hospital closures and we're going to see more. Thousands of northern Wisconsin residents are going to lose health coverage and will go without the care they need as a result of elimination of the Affordable Care Act Tax Credits and cuts to medicai

Here’s something I believe: when you’re hiring someone, you don’t ask what political party they belong to. You ask if they’re good at the job, if they’re honest, if they’ll show up and do the work. I think we should hold our elected officials to that same standard and ask ourselves, “Is this someone who’ll do right by our community?” My friend Dwaine told me flat out he’s never called himself a Republican or a Democrat in his life. He just votes for whoever he thinks will actually get the job

I think we should hold our elected officials to that same standard and ask ourselves, “Is this someone who'll do right by our community?” That's what means so much to me about the teacher who endorsed me. He told me flat out he's never called himself a Republican or a Democrat in his life. He just v

Each name opens the page’s Vipima page, with its own figures and its link to Meta’s Ad Library.
Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
