Friend – This November’s election is not the only upcoming battle for democracy in Wisconsin. There’s a sleeper menace coming up just 60 days from now—on August 13.
Wisconsin’s State Legislature—dominated by Republicans thanks to more than a decade of vicious gerrymandering—has put two Constitutional amendments on the WI ballot on August 13.
And they’re… bad.

These amendments are a power grab, plain and simple. They would give the Legislature “sole power” over federal funds that come into the state, undermining checks and balances by ripping powers away from the governor and handing them to the Legislature.
If they pass, they will jeopardize public health by potentially delaying critical funds for BadgerCare, restricting emergency responses to support first responders, dealing with diseases like avian flu, and assisting families in crisis.
They will threaten federal food assistance programs that kids and their parents rely on, and delay infrastructure projects, road construction, and jobs.
Wisconsin Republicans are trying to break our government. Again. And we won’t let them.
With your support, we can start organizing against these amendments TODAY. We can print literature, spread information about these amendments, send our volunteers door-to-door to reach key voters, and work to hold the WisGOP accountable in the press.
Can you chip in $24 to help us mobilize our grassroots team to put a stop to the latest WisGOP power grab, and make sure everyone in Wisconsin knows to VOTE NO on August 13?
