Notable personal detailsRandall John Bryce is an American union ironworker, political fundraiser, and former congressional candidate from Wisconsin. He served in the U.S. Army and has been active in labor politics, including work connected to Ironworkers Local 8. Bryce was the Democratic nominee for Wisconsin’s 1st Congressional District in 2018 and later filed as a candidate again for Wisconsin’s 1st District for the 2025–2026 cycle.
The candidate supports raising taxes on top incomes, treating capital gains as ordinary income, removing regressive tax loopholes, and expanding public investments in services (infrastructure, healthcare, education, childcare). The platform also calls for progressive changes to state and local revenue (including widening the sales tax base while making high-end purchases more heavily taxed and property tax circuit breakers for fixed-income residents).
Supports Medicare for All/single-payer health care and opposes repeal of the Affordable Care Act; favors government negotiation of drug prices and treating healthcare as a right rather than tied to employment.
Randy Bryce has publicly supported abolishing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and advocated shifting its necessary functions to other agencies. He has also supported easing pathways to legal status for childhood arrivals and criticized aggressive deportation practices that separate families. These positions emphasize reducing enforcement agency power and expanding protections/regularization for vulnerable migrants.
The candidate supports abortion rights and has stated that decisions about a woman’s body should be left to the woman. The campaign has been endorsed by pro-choice organizations and has criticized efforts to restrict reproductive rights.
Supports aggressive climate action including a Green New Deal–style plan to create sustainable jobs and a goal to decarbonize municipal energy production by 2030. Advocates major clean energy investment and transitioning workers into renewable-energy jobs.
Supports bans on semi-automatic/assault-style weapons (including AR-15s), mandatory universal/background checks for all gun sales, and other restrictions such as waiting periods and limiting NRA influence.
Randy Bryce is now at 20% and leads by 16.0 points in the WI-01 Democratic nominee race.
