Khary Penebaker Wins Primary, Will Face Jim Sensenbrenner in November

WAUKESHA – Khary Penebaker, candidate for Wisconsin’s 5th United States House of Representatives seat, won the uncontested Democratic Primary.  Mr. Penebaker will now face Republican Representative Jim Sensenbrenner in the November General Election.

“Our victory is an important step toward real change for Wisconsin’s 5th District,” said Mr. Penebaker. “My opponent wants you to believe his 38th year in Congress will be the year he finally delivers on his promises. I’ll only need one term for that.”

Khary Penebaker is a longtime Wisconsin resident and a small business leader in the Wisconsin roofing industry. He is a husband, a father of three, and a lifelong advocate for public safety issues.  Mr. Penebaker declared his candidacy after weeks of one-on-one meetings with Southeastern Wisconsin residents, many of whom expressed frustration with the broken U.S. Congress.

“Donald Trump’s candidacy is a test of our legislators’ character. Sadly, Rep. Sensenbrenner failed the test when he endorsed Mr. Trump,” said Mr. Penebaker. “I have fought my entire life for issues I believe in, even when my opinion has been unpopular. As Representative, I will continue to stand up for the citizens in my district. I will never compromise my ideals when times get tough.”

Candidate Khary Penebaker to Cast His Vote in the Wisconsin Primary

WAUKESHA – Tomorrow, Khary Penebaker, candidate for the United States House of Representatives 5th Congressional district seat, will cast his ballot in the Wisconsin primary. Mr. Penebaker will proudly vote for leaders up and down the ticket who support public safety initiatives and quality education, including Russ Feingold for US Senate. Mr. Penebaker intends to be one of the first in line to exercise his right to vote tomorrow morning.

“Legislators like Speaker Ryan and Rep. Sensenbrenner have failed the people of Wisconsin through their continued endorsement of Donald Trump and his dangerous policies. Our state needs leaders who will stand up against hate,” said Mr. Penebaker. “I will continue to work every day to earn and keep the trust of my constituents in the 5th District. Today, I do so by adding one more vote to the side of sanity.”

Congress Fails to Protect America

Waukesha, WI – Khary Penebaker, Wisconsin’s 5th Congressional District Democratic candidate issued the following statement:

“If a person should be prohibited from boarding a plane, they should be prohibited from purchasing a gun. Right now, lone wolf terrorists can purchase an unlimited amount of firearms and ammunition for attacking movie theaters, churches, nightclubs, and anywhere else we gather to celebrate living in a free and tolerant society. My opponent, Congressman Sensenbrenner, has been characteristically silent: he does not care to make even one single statement on the horrific Orlando shooting, the worst mass shooting in modern American history.

“The sadistic terror group we call ISIS is a threat today, but swearing allegiance to Daesh is the murder equivalent of buying a concert T-shirt at a store in the mall. We will soon defeat them, but our most dangerous citizens will simply move on to the next trendy evil.  We already know how to deal with that problem: a terrorist no-fly and no-buy list, accurate and subject to due process, that doesn’t stop people from living their lives but simply keeps them away from the tools they need to maim and kill others. Disingenuous or sincere, calls for perfection should not be the enemy of good policy.  Experts and the American people have agreed for years now about what action is needed to protect our children and neighbors from our enemies.

“I have advocated for the common sense solution to this problem since the first day of my campaign; my opponent has been avoiding both solutions and common sense for years.  Indeed, it’s already been a decade since the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel said it best: “[The] gun lobby calls the shots with Sensenbrenner.”
