ROTHSCHILD – Former Republican Wisconsin Congressman Sean Duffy formally endorsed Republican State Senator Tom Tiffany to replace him in the state’s 7th Congressional District at Wausau Homes in Rothschild on Thursday, Dec. 19.
In a statement from Tiffany’s campaign, Duffy said it is “a critical time in America” and that “the number of radicals in Congress keeps growing.” Duffy said Wisconsin families, farmers and manufacturers “can be confident Tom will stand for freedom and liberty and work with the President to stop the creep of socialism.”
“Growing up on a small farm with his seven brothers and sisters, Tom learned a strong farm work ethic that will serve him well as he goes to work with President Trump and keep America great,” Duffy stated. “Tom has the small business experience and conservative credentials necessary to help him fight in Washington for my family and yours to secure our southern border, protect our precious unborn, and defend our 2nd Amendment.”
“I’m honored to have Congressman Duffy’s endorsement,” Tiffany said in the statement. “Sean made a difficult choice in putting family first and stepping down to care for his daughter, Valentina. Sean has been a tireless advocate for conservative principles and President Trump’s top ally in Congress. I look forward to taking the torch from Sean and continuing to fight for the families of Northern and Western Wisconsin.”
