Liberal Wisconsin judge launches state Supreme Court bid [View all]

Wisconsin Court of Appeals Judge Chris Taylor announced Tuesday that she’s launching a campaign to challenge conservative Justice Rebecca Bradley on the state Supreme Court next year.

“Justices on the Wisconsin Supreme Court must be fair, independent, and impartial. Justice Rebecca Bradley has proven that she’s more interested in pushing her own right-wing political agenda than protecting Wisconsinites’ rights and freedoms,” Taylor said in a statement.

“Extremism and partisanship have no place on our state’s highest court,” she continued. “Everyone who comes before the court deserves to be heard, respected, and treated equally – that’s exactly what I’ll do as a Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice.”

Taylor has served on the Wisconsin Court of Appeals since 2023, and previously served as a judge in the Dane County Circuit Court. She served in the Wisconsin state Legislature from 2011-20 as a Democrat, and was a vocal supporter of abortion access, including testifying before the U.S. Senate about the Women’s Health Protection Act.
