Wisconsin's 23rd Senate district

The 23rd Senate District of Wisconsin is one of 33 districts in the Wisconsin Senate. Located in northwest Wisconsin, the district comprises all of Barron, Clark, Price, Rusk, and Taylor counties, with most of Chippewa County, northern Dunn County, and parts of northwest Marathon County. The district is mostly rural, but contains the cities of Bloomer, Ladysmith, Medford, Neillsville, and Rice Lake.

Current elected officials
Jesse James is the senator representing the 23rd district since January 2023. He previously served in the State Assembly, representing the 68th Assembly district from 2019 to 2023. After the 2024 redistricting, James no longer resides in the new district.

Each Wisconsin State Senate district is composed of three Wisconsin State Assembly districts. The 23rd Senate district comprises the 67th, 68th, and 69th Assembly districts. The current representatives of those districts are:
 * Assembly District 67: Rob Summerfield (R–Bloomer)
 * Assembly District 68: Karen Hurd (R–Fall Creek)
 * Assembly District 69: Donna Rozar (R–Marshfield)

The 23rd Senate district crosses two congressional districts. The portion of the district in Dunn County and the northwest part of Chippewa County fall within Wisconsin's 3rd congressional district, which is represented by U.S. Representative Derrick Van Orden. The remainder of the district falls within Wisconsin's 7th congressional district, which is represented by U.S. Representative Tom Tiffany.
