(Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) — 314 Action President Shaughnessy Naughton released the following statement on Judge Susan Crawford’s victory in Wisconsin’s Supreme Court election, effectively holding onto the liberal majority:

“Congratulations to Judge Susan Crawford on her successful election to Wisconsin’s Supreme Court. Now more than ever, we need fair, pro-science justices—and that’s Judge Susan Crawford.

“Though not a scientist herself, Judge Crawford has spent her career fighting for the beliefs that 314 Action stands for. Her track record includes defending reproductive rights, protecting our environment, and working for the people of Wisconsin—not Donald Trump or Elon Musk’s agenda.

“For years, it’s been said that ‘as goes Wisconsin, goes the nation.’ We can only hope Americans take after Wisconsinites and continue to fight back against Trump and Musk’s anti-science agenda by electing pro-science leaders at every level. And we will be in every state, supporting champions like Judge Susan Crawford.”

314 Action Fund supported Judge Susan Crawford’s campaign, helping to raise over $100K as Elon Musk poured over $20M into the race.

314 Action is the only national organization working to elect Democrats with backgrounds in science and medicine across all levels of government—from the Senate down to local school boards. The organization is powered by a grassroots community of over six million people supporting scientists, doctors, and STEM professionals who will use science and facts to address our most pressing issues like climate change and health care.
