Who We Are
Wisconsin’s First Congressional District (CD1) spans five counties, including Kenosha, Milwaukee (southern portion), Racine, Rock (partial), and Walworth County. With a mix of urban, suburban, and rural areas, CD1 represents a broad range of constituent voices.
We work to elect a Democratic US Congressional Representative who reflects the values of our diverse communities. Through grassroots organizing, civic education, and year-round engagement, we aim to expand participation in democracy and ensure that every voice is heard, every vote is counted, and every person has a seat at the table.
According to Data USA, as of 2023, the population of CD1 was 732,332, with a median age of 40.3 and median household income of $77,277.
Where We Are
In 2022, Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers approved a new map for the First Congressional District, which remains the current map for the District despite recent attempts at another revision. While gerrymandered congressional maps continue to favor Republicans, CD1 is considered a competitive swing district. Redistricting efforts have reaffirmed the importance of voter rights and fair representation.
What We Believe
As Wisconsin Democrats, we advocate for economic fairness, strong public education, affordable healthcare, and reproductive freedom, while protecting the environment and supporting worker's rights. We prioritize voting access, fair representation, and inclusive communities where ALL residents can thrive. Our vision emphasizes opportunity for working families, investment in local communities, and safeguarding Wisconsin's natural resources for future generations.
