CNOW for Nov. 11
Oppose AB 624: Undermining the Will of Voters, Part 1
Wisconsin Conservation Voters urges you to oppose AB 624, which is scheduled for consideration in the Assembly on Thursday.
To protect the health and the health of our planet, we must build a democracy in which elected officials are accountable to their constituents. Partisan redistricting works against this goal by creating non-competitive districts that allow politicians to ignore the will of their constituents. AB 624 doubles down on partisan redistricting by making few changes to the current, highly gerrymandered senate and assembly districts. This undermining of accountability would make it harder for Wisconsinites to ensure that the state legislature delivers on protecting our drinking water, fighting climate change, and building a democracy that works for everyone.
