Meet Amy
Not a career politician. Already doing the work.
Amy is a working-class neighbor, organizer, healthcare worker, parent, and small business owner building power with the people of Wisconsin’s 4th.
Why they’re running
Representation should be a relationship.
Amy Donahue is running for Congress because working-class people deserve more than temporary fixes and managed decline. They believe a representative’s job is to build power with their constituents, bring evidence and lived experience together, and remain accountable long after election day.
Amy uses they/them pronouns. Their campaign is rooted in transparency, solidarity, grassroots organizing, and the belief that the people most affected by a decision must help lead it.
Lived experience
Amy is a librarian, healthcare worker, UWM alumnus, Milwaukee Public School parent, and small business owner with a mortgage and student loan debt. They have lived across the country, including in the Washington, D.C. area. They know how to do the work there—and how important it is to bring that work, access, and accountability back home to WI-04.
Transparency & accountability
Amy believes constituents deserve accessible campaign finance reports, public pledges, clear communication channels, and straightforward explanations of every major decision. Their commitments include refusing corporate PAC money and supporting the No Fossil Fuel Money, Patients Over Profits, 2026 Cancer Promise, and Moms Demand Action Gun Sense Candidate pledges.
Solidarity in practice
Amy supports grassroots organizations, mutual aid, anti-racism, and Palestinian liberation. Their solidarity extends across WI-04, Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, the United States, and the world—because our struggles and futures are connected.
Connecting & organizing beyond the ballot
Amy has built networks through schools, healthcare, libraries, mutual aid, local organizing, and community advocacy. This campaign is designed to strengthen those relationships and grow collective political power that lasts beyond any single election.
