Senator Julian Bradley, a Republican representing Wisconsin’s 28th Senate district since 2021, has recently posted several statements on his social media account addressing issues related to Milwaukee police contracts and Democratic legislators.
On August 5, 2025, Bradley highlighted an ongoing labor issue in Milwaukee by stating, “Today is day 947 of Milwaukee not giving their police officers a contract.” This tweet draws attention to the prolonged period during which Milwaukee police officers have been without a formal employment agreement.
In another post from August 6, 2025, Bradley questioned the whereabouts of Texas Democrats and referenced actions taken by Wisconsin Democrats in the past. He wrote, “Wondering where the TX Dems are? Check Illinois – that’s where the WI Dems ran in 2011. Maybe we can find them in one of these totally-NOT-gerrymandered Illinois Congressional Districts: https://t.co/F6DbCInPHy” The message refers to an incident in 2011 when Wisconsin Democratic legislators left the state for Illinois during legislative disputes.
Bradley was elected to the Wisconsin State Senate in 2021 following Dave Craig’s tenure as senator for the district. His recent comments continue his engagement with current political debates and historical references within state politics.
