The 50th Assembly district of Wisconsin is one of 99 districts in the Wisconsin State Assembly.[1] Located in southern Wisconsin, the district comprises all of Green County, and parts of southwest Dane County including the southwestern exurban areas outside of Madison. It includes the cities of Brodhead and Monroe, and the villages of Albany, Belleville, Brooklyn, Browntown, Monticello, New Glarus, and Oregon. The district also contains Cadiz Springs State Recreation Area.[2] The district is represented by Republican Tony Kurtz, since January 2019.[3] After the 2024 redistricting, Kurtz no longer resides in the new 50th district.
