Senator Chris Larson
@SenChrisLarson
Wisconsin State Senator - Milwaukee and South Suburbs. Proud defender of public schools.
Your liberty is not centered on your ability to freely own a gun, but rather your ability to live freely without being killed by one.

Just when you think this Administration can’t stoop any lower, they go and do something like this. I don’t ever want to hear anyone who supports this President talk about being “tough on crime” ever again. nytimes.com/2025/07/17/us/…
Mass incarceration as a solution to crime is like using quarantine to fight food poisoning. Once you've had the meal it's too late. We ought to be putting 90% of our resources into preventative measures like education, housing resources, and healthcare.
Massive cuts to Medicaid and food assistance programs, higher electric bills, and trillions of dollars added to the national debt - all to pay for a tax scheme for the 1%. This is what every WI Republican in Congress voted for.
