We organized. We voted. WE WON

AND NOW THEY WANT TO NULLIFY OUR VOTE TO STAY IN POWER

Assembly Speaker Robin Voss is threatening to overturn the recent Supreme Court election of Justice Janet Potasiewicz by illegally impeaching her. This is an unprecedented threat. NO state official has ever been convicted and removed from office by the Wisconsin State Senate. This impeachment threat is a desperate, unconstitutional, and obscene power grab: A REFUSAL TO ACCEPT THE RESULTS OF THE ELECTION.

Announcing: DEFEND JUSTICE: An intensive, multi-pronged statewide campaign.

You’ve been a crucial defender of democracy. Now, your state needs you once again. Go To: DEFEND JUSTICE. That’s the website we’ll use to track where each legislators stands on impeachment—and share handy ways to contact them.

We’ll be in touch soon with more information on how you can get involved—and stay involved—as we defend our democracy from these unprecedented GOP attacks. We'll be announcing Defend Justice canvasses, phone banks, meet-ups and other events.

BIDENOMICS IS WORKING IN WISCONSIN

President Biden: Bidenomics is working in Wisconsin. We're investing in American workers.

Labor Day honors the dignity of the American worker and recognizes that Wall Street didn’t build America

Three weeks ago, at a clean energy factory in Milwaukee, I met an IBEW electrician who builds and repairs America’s growing fleet of wind turbine generators. He said, “In America, with hard work and a little faith, anything is possible.

He embodies the spirit of Labor Day, which honors the dignity of the American worker and recognizes that Wall Street didn’t build America, the middle class built America, and unions built the middle class.

We’ve seen that spirit throughout our history, especially over the last three years as we’ve been rebuilding our economy from the middle out and bottom up, not from the top down. Our plan, called Bidenomics, is working.

OUR COMMUNITY OPEN MIC IS BACK. JOIN US ON SEPTEMBER 8:

Democracy is on trial in the courts, and Wisconsin is no exception. From partisan gerrymandering and fake electors to drop boxes and limiting youth voting, litigation pending in Wisconsin's courts will impact the 2024 elections and beyond.

And there’s no person more familiar with these issues than Doug Poland, renowned election and voting rights attorney, partner at Stafford Rosenbaum LLP, and Co-founder of Law Forward. Doug will be the featured guest for the Oregon Area Progressives Community Open Mic on Friday, September 8, at 6:00 PM at the Kickback Cafe in Oregon, WI.

Join us to learn about what’s happening, what we can expect next, and what you can do to support democracy.

October 6: Heather Dubois-Bournane, Executive Director at Wisconsin Public Education Network
