Kelda Helen Roys on Principles & Values

 

 


Celebrates both Christmas and Hanukkah

Roys, a candidate for the 2026 Democratic gubernatorial nomination, celebrates both Christmas and Hanukkah. "My mom was raised Lutheran and I grew up celebrating Jewish holidays with my dad, who is a very active member of a Reform Jewish congregation in Milwaukee," she told UpNorthNews. "Then, I married into a big Catholic family and I go to a Unitarian Universalist congregation."

Pardon of Jan6ers was permission slip for violence

Roys noted Trump's pardons of January 6th insurrectionists. "I don't know what you can call those pardons, if not a permission slip for violence," Roys said. "I don't want to hear one word from Republican candidates about extremism, until they denounce their own president and his contributions to the terrible situation that this country is in."
