Wendy is running for Congress to bring back the strong America she grew up in. For the past 12 years, Wendy has served as a Judge for the state of Indiana and was the first female Allen Circuit Court Judge. She took the gravity of her oath seriously, treating every case fairly and refusing to legislate from the bench. She had a duty to enforce the law as written, but her position gave her a unique perspective to see where the law needs to be changed to improve our community and country. Now, she’s asking Hoosiers to send her to Congress to change it. 

Wendy and her two siblings were raised in a home centered around Christ and immersed in the value of hard work. She was very close to her two siblings – both of her brothers taught her to work hard, keep her ethics above reproach, and believe in her ability to succeed. Her parents, L.D. and Joyce Williams, raised Wendy to believe in the American dream because their family was living it. Her father – the “hardest worker she has ever met” – came from very humble beginnings and worked his own way through college, eventually earning a Ph.D. 

Wendy was instilled with her father’s work ethic and determination. A product of Fort Wayne public schools, Wendy went on to attend Wheaton College in Illinois, where she met her future husband Scott. She continued her education at Valparaiso University School of Law, completing her J.D. at Saint Mary’s Law School in San Antonio, Texas when Scott began his active duty in the U.S. Army. 

Wendy and Scott were married in 1990 and raised their three children in Fort Wayne, with the children attending Canterbury School and Homestead High School. They attend Emmanuel Community Church in Fort Wayne.

As the daughter of a U.S. Army Reservist, the wife of a Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Air Force – Indiana Air National Guard, and mother of a West Point graduate, Wendy is passionate about ensuring our service members have what they need to keep our country safe and our veterans are equipped with the resources they need for a successful transition back to civilian life. She is committed to making our American military strong once again to protect our freedoms and way of life. 

Wendy wants to restore America to the strong country she grew up in so we can leave a better America for her kids and for future generations. This starts with confronting the alarming embrace of a radical, divisive agenda pushed by the Left in our schools, corporations, and institutions. This “woke” ideology seeks to rewrite American history and undermine the very freedoms our nation was founded upon. Wendy believes that America is the most exceptional country in the history of the world, and we must teach our children to respect the United States Constitution and the freedoms it affords – the same Constitution Wendy has been upholding every day as a judge.
