New Candidate Alert In Wisconsin-- Meet Eric Wilson

0

Eric Wilson is a Bernie-grade progressive Democrat running for Wisconsin's Third Congressional district, a swing district that has 6 universities and progressive hubs throughout Western Wisconsin. He’s the only candidate fighting for Medicare for All, the Green New Deal, Responsible Gun Ownership, a ceasefire in Gaza, and student loan forgiveness. This is exactly the platform that will energize people this fall in one of the nation’s top 10 red to blue flippable seats. 

Eric has had a successful career in healthcare IT and housing and is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin, Madison with a degree in economics. His life has been marked by personal challenges, including years of personal healthcare issues. Those challenges have given him a unique perspective on our broken healthcare system. It was only during his sophomore year of college that he was able to undergo the necessary reconstructive surgery to live a normal life. After complications and a total of 15 surgeries, he was left with serious medical debt.
 
Eric believes that no one should have to fight for their health and their finances at the same time. That's why he supports a Medicare for All system. The first time we spoke with him he noted that

“Having to choose between whether you can afford the care you need or if you should just suffer is inhumane.”
