The Wisconsin Hospitals State PAC & Conduit has officially reached its 2026 fundraising goal of $353,500 with $356,113 raised to-date from 251 individual contributors.
“The strength of the WH State PAC & Conduit comes from individuals who understand that elections matter to the future of health care in Wisconsin,” said Bob Van Meeteren, president and CEO of Reedsburg Area Medical Center and WHA 2026 Advocacy Committee Chair. “Thank you to everyone who contributed this year and helped ensure we could support candidates who recognize the importance of strong hospitals and healthy communities.”
