Barbara Dittrich (born May 21, 1964) is an American politician. She was elected to the Wisconsin State Assembly as a Republican in 2018, defeating Democratic candidate Melissa Winker 57.6 percent to 42.4 percent.[2] She represents District 38 which is based around Oconomowoc and Lake Mills.
Political positions
Dittrich endorsed Patrick Testin in the 2022 Wisconsin gubernatorial election.[3]
Dittrich supports banning abortions, with exceptions for rape, incest and if the mother's life is in danger.[4]
Dittrich has been accused of holding anti-LGBTQ stances in 2023 by forwarding legislation to ban transgender student-athletes from participating in girls sports[5] and for a bill that would require libraries to inform parents/guardians of anything checked out by people under the age of 16 in reaction to public complaints of libraries making LGBTQ-related material available to youth.[6]
Personal life
On March 7, 2022 Dittrich’s daughter Sophie pleaded guilty to felony possession with intent to deliver psilocin and a misdemeanour charge of carrying a concealed weapon. These crimes occurred in Representative Dittrich's district while she was an elected official. Court records show that Sophie Dittrich resided at Barb Dittrich's home at the time of the crimes.
On March 10th of 2024, Sophie Dittrich was again arrested for felony possession of a firearm. Cash bond was posted less than 24hrs after this arrest and she has been released pending prosecution. [7]
