    Less than 2 months ago, I entered this race for Wisconsin State Treasurer. Today, more than 50 elected officials, former officeholders, and community leaders from across Wisconsin are standing with me — and I am deeply humbled. This race is about making sure Wisconsin's resources are managed with integrity, transparency, and a deep understanding of how state dollars actually affect families and communities. I've lived that work. I know how to do this job. If we win, I'll be the first Hmong American to hold statewide office in Wisconsin. But what matters most to me is earning the trust of every Wisconsinite who believes their tax dollars deserve a responsible steward. https://www.yeeforwi.vote/news/50endorsements
