Jason Calvi is honored to serve as FOX6 News' political reporter, covering battleground Wisconsin, one of the country's true swing states.
He brings 15 years of experience to the job, previously working in Indiana, Connecticut, and Washington, D.C. During his career, he broke national stories, including during Amy Coney Barret's appellate court confirmation. He also questioned candidates Donald Trump, Joe Biden, Mike Pence and Kamala Harris.

When not at FOX6, you'll find him with his family exploring parks and museums, checking out stacks of books from the library, working out, drinking coffee and going to church.
