Reaction
Harris for President Wisconsin Communications Director Brianna Johnson
"While Vice President Harris has helped oversee the largest drop in homicides in 50 years, JD Vance is running alongside a convicted felon who saw violent crime skyrocket when he was president and tried to overturn an election on January 6th. Vice President Harris is the only candidate who will keep our communities safe and protect our democracy."
