That's OK, Russ! You don't have to like it, but WE want you to win!

Democratic former Sen. Russ Feingold says he still doesn't believe in super PACs. But he's about to start receiving support from one, whether he likes it or not.

The national campaign group For Our Future announced on Friday that it will work in Wisconsin to elect Democratic candidates in 2016 and beyond. The group has two arms: a super PAC and a non-profit issue advocacy group.

Wisconsin is one of five states to see action from the group backed by billionaire environmentalist Tom Steyer, his company NextGen Climate and four labor groups: the AFL-CIO, the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, the American Federation of Teachers and the National Education Association.

The Wisconsin operation will work to elect Feingold, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and 8th Congressional District candidate Tom Nelson, and will target a handful of state legislative races as well.
