NAIFA Members Meet With Congressman Tony Wied

By NAIFA-Wisconsin on 7/29/25 7:47 PM

Earlier this month, NAIFA members had the opportunity to meet with Congressman Tony Wied, who is currently serving his first term representing Wisconsin’s 8th Congressional District. The meeting included time for personal introductions, as well as an overview of NAIFA—our mission, membership, and the clients we serve.

We also presented Congressman Wied with our issue brief highlighting bipartisan legislation supported by NAIFA and encouraged him to consider co-sponsoring these important bills.

It was a productive and engaging conversation, and we look forward to building a strong working relationship with Congressman Wied and his team.

Crawford Secures Win in the Nation's Most Expensive Court Race

By George Ermert on 4/2/25 11:27 AM

Dane County Judge Susan Crawford secured an open seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, solidifying liberal control for at least another three years.  With 98% of the vote in, Crawford was at 55%, while conservative Waukesha County Judge Brad Schimel was at 45%, according to unofficial returns. The money and national spotlight on this race were unprecedented.  The Tesla CEO and top aide to President Trump and his PAC spent more than $24 Million on this race.  Schimel underperformed in numerous areas around the state as Crawford easily exceeded the numbers that Democratic nominee Kamala Harris put up in the November election in losing to Donald Trump.  Crawford also won Brown, Outagamie, and Winnebago counties after Trump took all three last fall.  Turnout in the Supreme Court race has topped 2.3 million, with some precincts still out. That’s roughly a 26% increase statewide compared to 2023.
