Milwaukee, WI – Today, The LIBRE Initiative, the nation’s largest center-right Latino organization, announced its endorsement of Tom Tiffany for Governor of Wisconsin.

As Wisconsin’s Latino population continues to grow and play a more influential role in statewide elections, The LIBRE Initiative will engage Latino communities across the state – emphasizing policies that expand economic opportunity, lower the cost of living, and empower families to achieve the American Dream.

Why Tom Tiffany:

  • Lowering Property Taxes: Tiffany is the only candidate in the race who has promised to end the 400-year tax hike, making home ownership more affordable for all families across Wisconsin. He has prioritized efforts to reduce the burden of property taxes, a key affordability issue impacting homeowners and working families, including a growing number of Latino families who are working toward their American Dream.
  • Champion for Education Opportunities: While other candidates seek to end educational options, Tiffany supports expanding educational opportunities so parents can choose the best education for their children, an issue that strongly resonates with Latino families seeking better pathways for the next generation.
  • Support for Economic Growth: Tiffany stands out as the candidate who has backed policies that lower taxes, reduce regulatory burdens, and create an environment where small businesses, including Latino-owned businesses, can grow and succeed.
  • Energy and Job Creation: Tiffany has supported efforts to expand energy production and reduce barriers to development, helping create jobs and lower costs for Wisconsin families. As monthly energy bills continue to rise, Tiffany is the only candidate who is serious about ensuring affordable and reliable energy for Wisconsin.

Anna Flores, LIBRE-WI Strategic State Director, released this statement:

“Wisconsin’s Latino community is growing, and families across the state are looking for leadership that expands opportunity, fights for affordability, strengthens communities, and allows hard work to be rewarded. Tom Tiffany has demonstrated a commitment to policies that promote economic growth, reduce the cost of living, and create an environment where families and small businesses can thrive.

“His focus on lowering property taxes, expanding educational opportunities, and advancing policies that empower families aligns with the priorities we hear from Latino communities across Wisconsin. The LIBRE Initiative is proud to support Tom Tiffany and will work to engage Latino voters across the state to ensure their voices are heard in this important election.”

In the months ahead, The LIBRE Initiative will continue engaging Latino communities across Wisconsin through education and outreach efforts focused on the issues that matter most to families — affordability, education, and opportunity.
