“I’m running for re-election because Washington County deserves an Executive who will always put the people first. I am committed to investing in our kids and our future so the next generation has the same opportunity and the same great community that we’ve all had.”
Josh and his wife, Jodi, live on a farm in the Town of Trenton where they grow lavender and raise chickens. They have two sons, Cael and Drake, and are active members of Peace Lutheran Church in Hartford. A veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom, he served in the Army National Guard and was honorably discharged in 2008. He used the G.I. Bill to earn a Masters of Public Administration.
Josh has always set his priorities to get things done. He has shrunk county government in every metric: Lowest tax rate since before World War I, lower tax levy, and fewer government employees.
Your County:Â With the cost of living skyrocketing, Josh understands the challenges families face. By removing government red tape, he hopes to make living in Washington County sustainable and affordable.
Your Money: Every dollar that the government has is yours, not a politician’s or a bureaucrat’s. Josh is committed to investing your hard-earned taxpayer dollars into our highest priorities: Public safety, county roads, economic growth, and mental health services.
Your Executive: Josh is a seventh generation Washington County resident. He has dedicated his life to public service, and is your voice to elevate the people over bureaucracy and institutions.
 I’m Josh Schoemann, and I’m running for Governor to restore what’s made Wisconsin great—our people, our values, and our promise to the next generation.
For too long, Wisconsin’s future has been held hostage by career politicians, bureaucratic bloat, and failed leadership in Madison. I believe it’s time to reorient government back to the people it’s supposed to serve. Not the elite. Not the insiders. You.
From Washington County to Baghdad, I’ve served—in uniform, in government, and in the community. I’ve seen what works, and I know what doesn’t. Wisconsin doesn’t need more politics. We need more neighbors. That means fighting for working families, cutting red tape, restoring faith in our institutions, and building a state where our kids want to stay—and can afford to.
If you believe Wisconsin’s best days are still ahead, you’re in the right place.
Let’s Reclaim Wisconsin’s Future—Together.
