Some candidates for the 7th district in Wisconsin, which encompasses much of northern Wisconsin, have started their campaigns. Fred Clark, a Democrat from Bayfield, says he spent much of this past summer talking to voters of all political leanings about how changes in Washington D.C. were impacting them. “We've seen dramatic changes coming out of Washington, coming out of this administration. Some people agree with some of them. Some people don't,” said Clark. “It's time that we have a conversation about how our democratic process, it was envisioned by the framers of our Constitution, is supposed to work, and I want to see Congress do its job.” Clark talked with WXPR’s Katie Thoresen about his campaign. The following interview was edited for clarity and brevity. |

"I'm Running for Congress" - Fred Clark Announces Campaign for Wisconsin's 7th District
Civic Media and UpNorthNews October 1, 2025 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2V14GmKMCbw Former Wisconsin State Representative Fred Clark announces his campaign for Congress in the 7th Congressional District. In this exclusive interview with Pat Kreitlow, Clark discusses how Congress has abandoned its constitutional duties and why Wisconsin farmers are suffering from presidential tariff wars with no congressional oversight. Clark explains why he's running to restore Congress as a co-equal branch of government and stand up for northern Wisconsin values instead of taking "loyalty tests" that have become common in Washington. |
