  • Step One: Describe the problem.
    What do you struggle with? Which issue has the greatest impact on your life? What are you passionate about changing? Including too many topics can dilute your message, so narrow down your focus.

    Step Two: Provide evidence.
    Relay your experiences, and do your research. How does this issue affect others like you? Is there relevant legislature currently being discussed?

    Step Three: Call to action.
    What solutions do you support? What do you want to see happen? Why is this time sensitive? Don’t be disrespectful, but do be assertive! Push them into taking action.

  • Go to local rallies or protests. Attend community meetings. Find websites, activities, and methods that work for you. And most important of all — talk to others!

    Whether it’s talking with people you know, speaking up during a meeting, or even networking, connecting with our peers and neighbors is the quickest way to spread solidarity and awareness. Politics can seem intimidating, but our conversations around it don’t have to be charged and polarizing.

We can’t sit back!

Search by address to find the legislators currently representing YOU in the Capitol. Individual legislator pages contain details about their proposals and voting history.

The WI State Legislature website tells you who is meeting, where, and about what. Then head over to WisEye to watch the proceedings live.

WisEye is a nonprofit organization that independently broadcasts the happenings of the State Capitol. (The first and only organization of their kind in the USA!) The link above leads to their schedule, but their website also contains archives of past broadcasts.

By quickly creating an account with the State Legislature, you can choose which topics you want to be informed of. When keywords are mentioned in any legislative activity - proposals, committee hearings, administrative rules, and more - you’ll receive an email.

It is our right and responsibility as citizens to let our elected officials know how we want them to vote!
