Francesca Hong[[link removed]] is running for the Wisconsin State Assembly in District 76. Hong is the daughter of immigrants, a mother, and a small-business owner. Her career in the restaurant industry has made her an advocate for female and nonbinary culinary professionals, and she is a leader and mentor to the wider culinary community in Wisconsin. Hong understands how economic inequality and systemic racism has led to many of the problems facing Wisconsinites today. As a restaurant owner directly affected by COVID-19, Hong
will promote policies to promote economic recovery and address the failing economic structures exposed by the pandemic. She will also advocate for racial equity and criminal justice reform, well-funded public education, affordable housing, climate change action, accessible healthcare, and stronger labor rights. Hong is a humanist.
 
Kelda Roys[[link removed]] is running for the Wisconsin State Senate in District 26. Roys is a former member of the Wisconsin State Assembly, executive director of NARAL Pro-Choice Wisconsin, and board member of the ACLU of Wisconsin. She is a strong supporter of church-state separation. She says, “My experience as an atheist, an attorney, and a staunch ACLU supporter means I respect religion’s role in private life, but reject its role in public policy or government. Religious views should not make law.” Her other policy priorities
include healthcare for all, paid leave, student debt relief, fair wages, quality public education, racial and gender equality, and combating climate change. Roys is an atheist and secular humanist.
 
Melissa Sargent[[link removed]] is running for the Wisconsin State Senate in District 16. Sargent is currently a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly, a seat she has held since 2013. In the harsh political environment created by the Republican controlled Assembly and Senate, Sargent has been a strong progressive voice to fully fund public schools and make college affordable, increase the minimum wage to $15 an hour, enact common sense gun control, legalize marijuana, and protect women’s reproductive choices. Sargent is
agnostic.
