Gov. Sara Rodriguez in the field as a Democrat after Gov. Tony Evers announced he will not seek reelection.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know what it\u2019s like to struggle, and I know families across our state feel like they\u2019re falling behind,\u201d Crowley said in a statement. \u201cWith costs shooting up, we are all getting less, even if we\u2019re making more. As Governor, I\u2019ll fight every day to make sure that everyone in our state has access to what they need to succeed: good-paying jobs, more money in their pockets, affordable health care and housing, and fully funded public schools.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTogether, we can build a Wisconsin that works for all of us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Crowley <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecentersquare.com\/wisconsin\/article_e5122662-0674-4d9b-9512-c65bf7506408.html\" target=\"_blank\">previously said<\/a> that he was taking steps to enter the race so his official announcement was not a surprise.<\/p>\n<p>Whitefish Bay Resident Bill Berrien and Washington County Executive Josh Schoemann, both Republicans, were the first two candidates to announce they are running for the seat.<\/p>\n<p>Crowley was a Wisconsin legislator before becoming Milwaukee County Executive.
