BRAD SCHIMEL

puts politics and polluters first.

Brad Schimel is a former Attorney General under Scott Walker. Schimel built a legacy of extreme positions on environmental issues that prioritized corporate interests above the people of Wisconsin. Throughout his career, Schimel has taken actions to undermine protections for clean water, air, and public health, while aligning himself with polluting corporate interests.

From prohibiting climate change discussions to weakening environmental enforcement to challenging federal protections – Schimel’s record shows a callous disregard for the well-being of Wisconsin’s communities, its people, and its environment. The actions below demonstrate why Schimel's approach to the environment is an extremist relic of the Walker era – one that must be left behind for a cleaner, safer, brighter and more equitable future for everyone living in Wisconsin.

As Scott Walker’s Attorney General, Brad Schimel put politics and polluters first:

  • Supported ExxonMobil’s corporate climate cover-up with our tax dollars: Schimel stood by ExxonMobil when they misled investors and the public about climate change, casting doubt on the scientific consensus. This is just one example of his participation in anti-environmental lawsuits.

The choice is clear on Tuesday, April 1. Judge Susan Crawford will lead with impartiality and fairness and will reject the extremist Walker era agenda of Brad Schimel.

“Brad Schimel is simply unfit to sit on
the Wisconsin Supreme Court.”

As Attorney General during Scott Walker’s second term as Governor, Brad Schimel led Wisconsin’s Department of Justice, which includes the Environmental Protection Unit. Time after time, he let corporate polluters off the hook, especially when they donated to his campaigns

Hear from Tom Dawson, who worked with Democrat and Republican Attorneys General at Wisconsin’s Department of Justice as the head of the Environmental Protection Unit, about what it was like working with Brad Schimel.
