Assembly Minority Leader Greta Neubauer is optimistic about 2026
Assembly Minority Leader Greta Neubauer (D-Racine) told the Wisconsin Examiner in a year-end interview that Democrats have spent the past year preparing to lead and she is optimistic about the chances for flipping the Assembly. Neubauer reflected on the current session and previewed whats ahead.
This session has been different from previous ones, said Neubauer, who was first elected to the state Assembly in 2018 and has led Assembly Democrats since 2022.
Closer numbers in the state Assembly and state Senate have yielded some more bipartisan work, Neubauer said. Republicans hold a 54 to 45 majority in the Assembly, and a 18 to 15 majority in the state Senate.
She felt the difference this year from her first seven years in the body, she said, when Democrats were in a position where we really were on defense and having to spend a huge amount of time just trying to prevent the worst policy ideas from going through.
