Let’s talk about Wisconsin

For years, Republican legislators in Wisconsin have used their power to violate the state constitution, rig the legislative districts, and restrict access to the ballot by extreme partisan gerrymandering.

Hi, it's Marc Elias. I'm proud to be one of the top attorneys in the fight to defend our democracy against Republicans' far-right agenda. Today, I'm reaching out because we need to talk about what is happening in Wisconsin. Earlier this month, a lawsuit was filed that challenges the state's legislative districts – this is a big step in our fight for fair elections, access to the ballot, and equal protection. For years, Republican lawmakers in Wisconsin have used their power to violate the state constitution, rig the legislative districts, and restrict access to the ballot through extreme partisan gerrymandering. This lawsuit calls out these harmful practices and seeks to reestablish clear and fair district boundaries. This lawsuit is critical to our democratic progress; with a newly established liberal majority on the WI Supreme Court, this is a pivotal moment for Democrats. This is the newest battle in our fight for democracy, and state legislatures are our last line of defense. Democrats could secure fair maps and finally build power in states like Wisconsin, but they need your help. That's why I'm reaching out to you today, on behalf of my friends at the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee, to ask you to donate a triple-matched gift of $7 to help elect Democrats to state legislatures who will stand up to Republicans' anti-democratic attacks ahead of their end-of-month deadline.
