MADISON, WI – In response to Donald Trump’s comments regarding sexual assault, workplace harassment and the objectification of women, Wisconsin Senate Democratic Leader Jennifer Shilling (D-La Crosse) released the following statement calling on Republican politicians and candidates to denounce Trump and rescind their support of his candidacy:

jennifer-shilling“Despite our political differences, Democrats and Republicans should be united in our opposition to sexual assault and gender inequality. Instead, we continue to see Republican politicians turn a blind eye to Donald Trump’s dangerous and offensive comments condoning sexual assault, workplace harassment and the objectification of women.

“As elected officials and public leaders, we need to be role models for our children and lead by example. It is time for Republican politicians in Wisconsin to break their silence and speak out against Donald Trump’s disturbing actions and offensive comments.

The following Senate Republicans and candidates have not denounced Trump or rescinded their support of his candidacy:
