SPOTLIGHT RACE: Robyn Vining for WI-SD05

Robyn and her husband of 25 years, a professor, have raised their children in Wauwatosa, WI, where she built her professional photography business from scratch about a decade and a half ago.

You’ll see her fierce work ethic and tenacity in Madison in the form of serving as ranking member on the Assembly Committee on Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder Prevention and authoring and co-sponsoring legislation she knows is important to the lives of her constituents. Knowing what it feels like to be a mother who lost her health insurance while pregnant, being a WIC mom, and EpiPen mom, facing her husband’s long-time unemployment, being a small business owner for more than a decade, and parenting through significant economic challenges, Robyn fights for families as if they’re her own.

She often says her body still has the “muscle memory” to remember what those very hard days felt like, and she knows far too many Wisconsinites face similar challenges. People are her motivator, fairness and justice are her rally cry, and the reason she’s running for re-election is, “For the Love of Wisconsin.”
