Vote NO SB621/622 & AB624/625 - end gerrymandering
26 so far! Help us get to 50 signers!
A decade ago WI legislators gerrymandered Wisconsin and took away Wisconsinites’ freedom to have a say through their vote. Our votes are counted, but our votes do not count.
On 10/21/21 the WI Legislature announced the proposed new gerrymandered maps and made it crystal clear they want to once again deny Wisconsinites’ freedom to vote for another decade.
The Legislative bills to adopt the gerrymandered maps are SB621/SB622 & AB624/AB625. The maps are so bad the Princeton Gerrymandering Project gave them all an "F,", and other non-partisan government organizations have found them unacceptable as well.
The People's Maps Commission also came out with new maps on 10/21/21. But in stark contrast with the Legislature, the PMC has used an open & transparent process (which Wisconsinites have demanded through passing Fair Maps referendums/resolutions in a majority of counties). The latest maps were second drafts, revised after reviewing comments & studying the Voting Rights Act.
If the Legislature and the Governor do not agree, the Courts will decide.
Gerrymandering is wrong - regardless of who is guilty of it.
I urge two actions from you today: 1) To strike down these gerrymandered maps by voting NO on SB621/SB622 and AB624/AB625. And 2) I urge you to end future gerrymandering by holding public hearings for redistricting bills SB389/AB395.
We the People of Wisconsin are speaking: Vote NO on SB621/SB622 and AB624/AB625.
I look forward to your email reply ASAP.
